Melanydros welcomed the REDICOLO puppet theatre from Thessaloniki for a unique two-day event for children and adults alike, at the school in Neochori. Two performances with life-sized and giant puppets, live music and audience participation brought the stage to life.

Saturday, 2 May, 17:30 — “Robin of the Woods… differently!”
A brave and strong hero who is a little funnier than he would like. An original, interactive contemporary puppet show with life-sized puppets that, through humour and unexpected twists, highlights the value of cooperation and reminds us that no one succeeds alone.

Sunday, 3 May, 11:00 — “The Circle with the Puppet”
A tender, profound story that asks a timeless question: what is truly fair? With giant puppets over two metres tall and audience participation, the performance became a living story unfolding through action and play.

With a focus on cultural awareness and on opening the world of theatre to children, the event was made possible with the valuable support of Christina Gaintatzi, Zois D. Gazis, Giorgos Manolitsis-Douzos, Alekos Baltsas and Vasilis Tzoras.
