Kiwi and Litchi reconstruct their past during a garage sale, using the discarded objects around them to bring their story to life…
Abandoned in a city that seeks to sweep away the destitute, Kiwi is adopted by a community of young people who live a clandestine existence. Despite her difficult position, she shows that it is possible to imagine a brighter future and indeed, the new friends share a common dream of buying a house in the country.
The magnificent and fascinating language of playwright Daniel Danis haunts this modern fairy tale devoid of fairies as it slithers between theatre and cinema. Ordinary objects are transformed before our eyes into extraordinary tenderness.
KIWI (for all audiences, ages 12+)
FEBRUARY 20 TO 23 / STUDIO
Written by Daniel Danis // Directed by Guylaine Rivard // With Dany Lefrançois and Sara Moisan
