PERÔ
24 Sep -- 12 Oct 2008
Unicorn Theatre, London
In the tiny village of Fanghetto, there is no fresh bread. Perô, the local baker, has closed his shop because he's sick -- lovesick! He's is in love with Colombina, the girl next door, but just can't pluck up the courage to tell her.
To make matters worse, suave Italian painter Paletino breezes into town and sweeps Colombina off her feet with his lively colours and happy small-talk. Will she fall for his easy charms or realise that true love has been on her doorstep all along?
Perô is a funny, enchanting and beautiful production from the Dutch theatre company Speeltheater Holland. It skilfully combines actors, puppets, live music and songs to tell this charming story of love and friendship.
This is the UK premiere of Perô and follows an extensive international tour where it won the Best Performance of the Year Award at the International Showcase of Performing Arts for Young People in Florida, USA.
