Age 6 - 18 months
From the song of early birds to luminous juggling at dusk, the performance follows the rhythm of the day. The pop-up decor slowly comes to life, and there is always something that rattles, appears, creaks, rolls or floats.
During the performance, a heartwarming dialogue develops between the artists and their young audience. Because of these spontaneous interactions, each performance is unique. After the performance, the audience is invited on stage – they can crawl in, out, along and through the decor to explore the special materials up close. Be Kind also offers a specially designed baby book by Rianne van Duin to continue discovering circus and play at home.
"The joyful baby rebellion during Be Kind really topped everything.” Theaterkrant
