Audrey Sees​ , a performance for littles about ways of knowing

How do we celebrate different ways of knowing?

​Audrey Sees is an original Theatre for the Very Young production. Workshopped at Children's Museum of Southern MN, November 2016.

Interactive performance developed for children up to 7 years.
​Run time is 40 minutes.  Includes performance and play interaction sections.
 
Throughout 2016 I conducted a series of interviews with my Grandmother, Audrey Flod who was about to run 93 years old. My entire life I have heard stories of unique things my grandmother sees and has seen since she was a very young child. Her unique perspective and way of experiencing the world inspired me to create an original piece of immersive theatre for the very young. As a brand new genre of theatre in the United States, Theatre for the Very Young is a hands-on performance genre designed for the developmental needs of children under 5 years old. Using my grandma’s stories as a jumping off point, I devised an interactive performance experience with another theatre artist using movement, light and shadow play and live music.

Generous funding provided by McKnight/Prairie Lakes Regional Arts Council Artist Career Development Grant, 2016.
