Using everyday objects—a sock, an umbrella, a jumble of bags, a rubber line with clothespins, straws and a giant bag—performer Esther Nicklas builds a clownish, movement-driven story about arriving and staying, with very few spoken words. Small wordplay along the way sparks children's curiosity about language. The material theatre performance lasts 30 minutes and is recommended for children aged 2 to 6.
