“I must find a place where I can hide my desires. I’m not talking about the thin, small wishes (…) But the others – the three that suddenly become big and fat – ah – I don’t want to show them to anyone anymore. Not at all.”

What wishes are hidden deep down inside of us? Inspired by the book “The Yellow Bag” by the Brazilian author of books for children and young people Lygia Bojunga Nunes, the young people in this performance combine their everyday life with a world full of possibilities created by themselves.

17:00 hrs, cultural garden

Vegetable Orchestra Concert

For a plant-sound laboratory, HELLERAU – European Centre for the Arts was looking for children from the 3rd grade upwards who would like to make a carrot flute, a leek violin, a celery bongo or any other vegetable instrument. With the self-made instrument the children could record and upload their own vegetable sound.

All vegetable sounds sent in became part of a large vegetable orchestra video collage, which is presented online and now as a concert in HELLERAU.

18:30, Cultural garden
