But making friends with your shadow can be tricky business. There are things to sort out, negotiations to be made, frustrations to overcome, problems to solve, adventures to be had and laughter to be shared.

Me and My Shadow is presented in the form of a visual poem for children. The show tells its story using the languages of paper, light, shadow, colour, water, sounda and words. With fantastical imagery, quirky physical performances and an intriguing score, Me and My Shadow seeks to ignite the imaginations of 4-8 year olds in a poetical experience that explores the frustrations and joys of friendship.

“A feast for the eyes that reaches straight, crystal clear to the hearts of all ages.” David O’Brien - Db Review
