STONE PLAY

Stone Play takes us back to the beginnings of humankind, back to a long-forgotten world of light, shadow, song and storytelling. It traces the beginnings of paint and visual expression – stone, ground into powder, rain to make paint and finally image. In this show by Magnet Theatre, a company with a special focus on body language and physical theatre, the actors transform into the first family: springbok, meerkat, ostrich and tortoise, a diverse group of creatures that together find unity. As they jump from stone to stone, exploring the sound, rhythm and weight of the stones, the performers remind us of the importance of family and of unity in diversity.
