The plant stands still, the tree too. On the surface we see silent beings, often solitary. Come a little closer. There are sounds. Come even closer. There are entire worlds. "Ee Gida, Aa Mara" translates from Kannada to English as" This Plant, That Tree". The play explores the two, and magnifies the micro environments they house through movement, visuals and sound. The play aims to create an experience for toddlers even before speech has emerged in their life. Creating a world of seeds, leaves and gentle sounds, the play tries to help an infant in collecting experiences that may help it make sense of the world around.
Creating experiences for children in whose life speech has not yet arrived is why we make theatre for toddlers. 0-5 are the years of max growth of a child's brain & at 2 years their absorption of sensory actions is phenomenal. Every action around them is an event that is recorded for posterity.
