Description

The Berlin-based Street-theatre group “Grotest Maru”, one of the best known ensembles of it’s genre in Germany , has been invited by the Cyprus Ministry of Culture and the Goethe-Institut Cyprus to perform within the official cultural programme of Cyprus’ EU-presidency on Ledra Street pedestrian zone on 5th and 6th October 2012 evenings from 6.30 pm.

Let yourself and your kids be carried away by the spectacular show on stilts “Parada Narrnia”, including a “living fountain”: The big white bird, the magic gardener, the sad prince, the unicorn princess and the rest of the forgotten queen´s court are travellers from a fairy world. They wake up to share with us tales and pictures from their universe, which seems to be lost...  Visually impressive stilt figures and quick-moving ground characters interact with the audience and invite people into their play. GROTEST MARU develops new characters and improvisations corresponding to the location and environment that surrounds them.

Under the auspices of the Cyprus Presidency of the Council of the EU
