Last weekend Cloud Child flew into Perth to delight families with young children in the Sunset Verandah venue at Scarborough beach. Playing in a big top tent to a large audience, puppeteer Adam Bennett and circus performer Lynda Moylan told the ever enchanting story of Cloud Child, to lovely audiences.
Each child recieved their own little fluffy cloud to hold during the storytelling and fly in the clear Perth blue sky at the end of the performance, as they exited out of the tent in a follow the leader procession.
Giant mermaid fabric covered clouds at the main entrance were also part of the sensory engagement for children to interact with.
Audience feedback included –
‘magical’
‘a beautiful little show’
‘is their a childrens book of this story?’
‘this is the only show my profoundly deaf son has ever sat still and enjoyed!’
‘my child was mesmerised!’
Thank you to everyone who supported DNA’s performances and look out for the Cloud child story book coming soon!
