Little spectators became actors, in Alba Iulia: unique performances, on the stage of the Puppet Theater “Prichindel”. On Thursday, the children who enrolled in the Art of Acting and Art of Animation workshops gave a performance in which they showed what they had learned during the three months of the workshop: from handling to interpretation, from stage walking to diction, from mastering emotions to the transmission of emotions.

The actor’s art group

“The group from Arta actorului, coordinated by Viorica Boda and Teodora Popa, supported musically and choreographically by Tudor Cristian Popa, brought the emotion from the actor to the spectator exactly as it is done in the theater, offering a stage adaptation of “The Little Prince” , by Antoine de Saint-Exupéry, full of sensitivity and candor, which put them to the test, but which thus made them more skilled and stronger.

The final message was exactly what we, those of the Puppet Theater “Prichindel”, say or transmit every time, with every performance:

We also tell you that at the theater
Without a doubt
The main character
It’s the audience in the hall
Just like for the soul
Laughter is a window
We have only one king
The audience in front of us,” the theater representatives said.

The Art of Animation Group

“We love the theater very much,
We just want to be on stage
we animate puppets,
We sing and dance.
We are the little actors
And I went on stage
Let us introduce you with love
A wonderful show.

A promising and cheerful beginning of the little actors from the Art of animation group. Under the watchful eyes of the coordinators Laura and Adam Boboc, with a lot of emotion and excitement, they delighted us with the fables told and sung, with stories, with the handling of the marionettes, which thus acquired a voice, came to life in their hands.

It was a full show, with laughter and poetry, which delighted us all.

The most emotional: parents and grandparents and even friends watched and applauded the performance”, wrote the representatives of the theater on the Facebook page.
