The Bookbinder — Belvoir
This all-ages show of shadowplay, paper art and puppetry is a joyful diversion from the shitfight of adult life.
Overview
Well, this sounds entirely delightful. The Bookbinder comes to Belvoir from Trick of the Light Productions, a small New Zealand outfit who appear to specialise in puppetry, modelmaking and reaffirming the existence of magic.
A chap who has made his living binding books is after a new apprentice. He's pretty sure there's one in the audience, but they need to be made of strong stuff. You see, the last boy who wanted to become his apprentice was sent on a quest and we're not entirely sure what happened to him. Whether we'll find him or be gobbled up by monsters is anyone's guess.
If you hadn't gathered already, this is theatre aimed at a younger audience. But as a joyful, simple and complete diversion from the broken-down shitfight of adult life, it might be just the ticket you need.
