Life on earth is amazing.
We are born, learn to crawl, to stand, to walk, to grow, to work, to care for those we love, and to grow old. From a tiny little seed comes a beautiful flower that smells and blooms, attracting bees that make the honey we eat!
The cycles of life, like the cycles of nature are celebrated in this festive production that combines music and dance from Mexico, Guatemala, Panama, Colombia, Ecuador, Peru, Bolivia and Chile to create a captivating performance for young children and their grown ups.
Included in the playlist are some fun activities for children and their families as well as a chance to meet Layla Rayna, the director/creator of the Cyclo!

About A co-production Compañía Aranwa and Comedia Köln Theater
ABOUT
Aranwa Company is group of multidisciplinary artists who work with early stimulation generating theatrical experiences for babies from 0 to 5 years old. We are one of the pioneer companies in Chile focused on early childhood. Thus generating new audiences, contributing to their development and empowering parents and educators through the delivery of various tools. This arises under the urgent need of its director, Layla Raña, to investigate the link between the artistic and the pedagogical-formative.
“We seek to stimulate, develop and strengthen the motor, cognitive and social potential of the human being through art and early childhood education in order to generate more reflective, tolerant, sensitive societies and at the same time generate audiences for the arts.”
