Martina Griewank A. seeking a talented and passionate contemporary dancer for upcoming young audience performance, “F(olha)/Leave”.
About the Production
“F(olha)/Leave” is a new dance-theatre piece for young audiences (ages 3.5 to 6). The performance explores themes of nature, change, letting go and growth through movement, sustainable play, and visual storytelling. It unveils the entire life cycle of a leaf and its parallels to human life, offering layers of meaning for both children and adults. By encouraging the audience to observe (“olhar” in Portuguese), collect, listen, find connections, and use leaves in creative ways, F(Olha) inspires a deeper appreciation for them.
