A fish for Luna

A visual, musical and poetic performance about being different – and about belonging.

When Luna can't sleep, she discovers a strange creature in the moonlight outside her window, a kind of... flying balloon fish that is neither fish nor bird? She doesn't understand what it is saying, but Luna decides to find out where it really belongs. Maybe it can fit into the city if she dresses it up? Maybe it lives in the ocean with other fish? But how is she supposed to know where it lives when she can't understand a word it says? It makes such strange sounds, maybe they can understand each other in ways other than words? What if they talk by drawing, dancing, singing? Will she understand the moonfish then?

The performance is now presented by Fabula Rasa (formerly Fabularium Produksjoner) and is a collaboration with Unge Viken Teater. It is based on Lisa Aisato's picture book "A Fish for Luna", and explores what it means to feel different through visual poetry, language play and evocative music.

The performance is suitable for children aged 3-6 and for children with special needs.

Room or area specifications:
We prefer to play in a sheltered room without through traffic. Sound: Cultural centers/other arenas: Considered at each individual venue whether to use their own system or the venue's system. If the cultural center provides speakers, two XLR cables are used to connect the PC to the speakers. Light: Cultural centers/other arenas: General stage lighting in the performance area, with the ability to adjust the level. In addition, separate lighting equipment is used. This does not need to be connected to a light table. Hall lights are dimmed to a low level when the performance begins. Kindergarten: Preferably sheltered, but not necessary. If possible, set-up and take-down should take place without children present in the room. The room should be cleaned thoroughly in advance. All equipment is brought by performers. Wardrobe Cultural centers/other arenas: 1 wardrobe Kindergarten: Not necessary

Audience location:
Cultural centers/other arenas: Unnumbered seats if possible. The performance works best with the audience positioned close to the stage and centered in front of the performance area. Feel free to draw the audience forward by placing mats/cushions in front of the first amphitheater row. At cultural centers we play for a maximum of 80 people. Kindergarten: The audience is positioned at the front on mats/benches/chairs. At kindergartens we play for a maximum of 50 children per performance. The venue provides mats and benches/chairs.
