Meet Talking Tree, Oak Friend, and Tree Storyteller in the forest
The Forest Guide meets you at the forest edge, and you set off with your orange-red backpacks to visit the Talking Tree in the forest edge. It asks you questions and writes in its guestbook. What kind of tree are you? How many branches do you have? Can you feel your roots? What do you grow from? Do you eat those yellow roots? And many more questions, asks the Talking Tree to both children and adults.
You visit the family tree, the oldest grandmother tree in the forest. You feel her old, bark-covered skin and hear the story of the hyphae living beneath the ground. In the treetops of the forest lives the tree’s red squirrel friend. The squirrel friend visits with her squirrel companions. They take you on a flying journey from tree to tree. You hear the forest’s song. Meet the Tree Storyteller, watch a puppet show about trees, and plant new trees. You find your way back on the talking mushroom trail with purple Amethyst, Trumpet Mushrooms, and yellow Chanterelles.
In the performance 'Voks skoV for the youngest', children experience the forest with all their senses on a small walk into the Wood Wide Web. Here, trees communicate with each other through a network of hyphae between the roots beneath the forest floor. Arboreal biological knowledge forms the foundation for the performance’s storytelling humorous approach to tree families. In the interaction between the living tree, the oak friend, and the tree storyteller, the youngest audience intuitively experiences the forest at a calm pace. Their sensory knowledge of flora and fungi in the forest is anchored in their bodies. As their senses are challenged, the experience of the interrelationships between plant species expands.
