Children's Festival - Countries Shaped Like Stars


  • Arts Court Studio 2 Daly Avenue Ottawa, ON, K1N 6E2 Canada (map)

A love story for adults and precocious children, Gwendolyn Magnificent and Bartholomew Spectacular use a tin-can telephone to share with audiences their whimsical love story in Countries Shaped Like Stars.

 This performance begins with demanding dragon fruits and ends with heartache whispered into the ears of birds and constellations. The duo uses performer-operated lights, brimming water glasses, whirly winds, and a mandolin to create a landscape forever altered by regret.

 Countries Shaped Like Stars is a stunning achievement, full of whimsy, charm, and original music – truly a production for all ages.
