Puppetry performance by Abrazo de Letras
Stories from the heart
–
Alameda Hidalgo
Using glove puppets, mouth puppets and props, the play Historias que se guardan en el corazón is a visual, sensory and auditory journey in which the stories teach us that we all have a place here. The Abrazo de Letras theatre company explores fear, laughter and friendship, and its characters tell us that each of us holds stories close to our hearts. This is an accessible and inclusive production, featuring a sign language interpreter integrated into the performance who interacts with the puppets. It also includes audio description for blind people and sensory stimulation. It will be a relaxed performance.
