The performers presented a play entitled “Wings for Clowns,” showcasing their primary approach based on stage improvisation, intuitive search, and artistic representation of relevant themes and images. The actors “create music with their bodies,” engage in interactive dialogue with spectators, and freely change the manner and form of their movement, feeling and thinking.
“It is common practice for young actors of the Piano Theater to help their vulnerable age-mates heal through laughter, joy, and play. Helping is the right word when it comes to personal development. It's nice when children are happy to help, support, and share,” said Vladimir Chikishev, artistic and principal director of the theater.
The Children to Children project includes a series of charity performances and master classes given by the Piano Theater for children and teenagers in the hospitals and social institutions of the Nizhny Novgorod, Moscow and Samara Regions.
