Espectáculo de marionetas de papel con teatro kamishibai a cargo de la artista residente Almendra Vergara sobre el colibrí y leyendas prehispánicas.


“From the 1920s to the early 1950s, Japanese sweet sellers and storytellers travelled by bicycle from town to town, village to village, drawing large, young audiences. Kamishibai men would secure their butai – a wooden structure, half picture frame, half theatre stage – to the back of their bicycle, and would use wooden clappers (hyoshigi) to beckon their young spectators.” from Kamishibai: how the magical art of Japanese storytelling is being revived and promoting bilingualism.
