Join in the fun for this special edition of Saturday storytime! Participate in this year’s Kids Euro Festival in partnership with the EU in the US. We’ll be welcoming Finnish performance artists Nina Mamia and Kasperi Nordman as they perform their work “Frogpond” This event is free and open for all to attend!
“Do not run around with trash and soil, for you never know, who`s home it might spoil”.
Moor Frog Molly returns to her birth pond for a big family reunion, only to find out, that her beloved home has been soiled and spoiled. While waiting for her relatives, the spirit of the pond; Peter Pond, wakes up.
How can small little Molly save her friend and home? Or perhaps she needs some help, maybe from the audience.
Mamia Company is a contemporary dance theatre and touring company based in Vantaa, Finland. Company was founded in autumn 2014 by the choreographer & director Nina Mamia and director & actor Kasperi Nordman.
