The Big Bang
Itim Ensemble
Language: No words (Gibberish)
Ages: 4+
Duration: 50 minutes
Amid a stage entirely built from dismantled computer parts covering the floor, an extraordinary futuristic saga unfolds — following the journey of two friends: K the robot and his dog, Betty.
They are tiny electrical beings living in a digital-electric world, where charging and recharging are limitless.
On a giant screen stretched across the edge of the city, children watch a live suspense film created in real time from electronic waste.
In the electric city where K and his friends live, life is vibrant and energy abounds — yet the residents fail to notice the disaster approaching them: rain.
