The Slow Show
The Slow Show draws children and adults alike into the storybook world of Helix and Trichia. Trichia is a nature-loving human and Helix is a giant garden snail.
Part installation, part theatre, and part roving performance, the snail house will rove (albeit slow) before setting up a simple campsite.
It is a heart-warming theatrical event, a quirky and engaging act for all ages.
The Slow Show draws children and adults alike into the storybook world of Helix and Trichia. Trichia is a nature-loving human and Helix is a giant garden snail. They live together in Helix’s beautifully crafted shell and are slowly traveling the world enjoying the magic in simple things.
Part installation, part theatre, and part roving performance, the snail house will rove (albeit slow) before setting up a simple campsite. Here, this odd, yet charming couple invite children and adults to share a cup of tea, hear a song or a travel story, or perhaps have a cooking lesson in salt and sugar free cuisine. It is a heart-warming theatrical event, a quirky and engaging act for all ages.
The 'show' is organic and interactive- not a sit down show. They hang out washing, do ironing, cook, feed Helix, dust while chatting and telling stories to all who care to listen.
