Enchanting puppet show ‘THE MOLE AND THE HOUSE THAT CAME AND LEFT’ with Theatre Lampe from Denmark 🇩🇰 at @rafipeertheatre in Lahore 🇵🇰

Amazing to experience how one puppet, one person, with music and a small stage can captivate the young audience.

🇵🇰 kids and their families were thrilled, shifting from complete silence in anticipation of what would happen next and to great laughter and cheering.

In Denmark 🇩🇰 children’s theatre is also theatre, and it is equally valid as a form of art. Children’s theatre takes children serious by portraying the matters and feelings that children are confronted with and giving them a medium to experience and relate.

The Embassy is very proud that this exchange of culture and arts between 🇩🇰 and 🇵🇰 was made possible by the support of the @statenskunstfond

Rafi Peer Theatre Workshop and Theatre Lampe (Denm

A beautiful Puppet Show brought to you All the Way From Denmark. A non-verbal show about seeing and feeling the world, also the worlds that are unlike your own. The mole lives safely in its dark burrow under the ground, until one morning it wakes up to find that a house has landed on top of its molehill.
