A cardboard house inside a theatre? No… the entire theatre is transformed into a cardboard house. Paper walls, paper windows, paper furniture, paper floor, paper light bulbs... every part of the house is made of paper, even the adorable heroine!
Here is a simple home made from white paper walls and black lines. This minimalist cardboard house theatre, however, is imbued with a powerful world of creativity. The elf of imagination sneaks into the house, pokes through the windows, pulls the drawers open and strips the roof down, blowing all the little guests away!
Created in the United Kingdom, staged across the world and toured around mainland China with over 100 performances, Paper Puppet Theatre Paperbelle is about to land at the Macao Arts Festival. The enigmatic paper girl is now inviting all little guests in town to her living room to discover in a minimalist setting an art form that is not as simple as it seems.
