Kodama

If you enter the forest... you will live a sensorial and artistic experience with us, the Kodamas!

In this movement and music show for 0- to 3-year-olds, the company Blink Flash invites them into the forest to find the kodamas, tree spirits from Japanese folklore. Two playful beings will accompany the little ones to become a leaf, a root or a flower, to feel how the wind moves and to listen to the sounds of the forest.

About the company

Blink Flash is a dance-theatre company for young children and their families. With a poetic and contemporary approach, they use the body and movement to talk about emotions. The company was created in 2016, when the Mercat de les Flors and the Festival El Més Petit de Tots suggested that Montse Roig should create a stage show based on the Labs she was running in nursery schools as part of the Body and Movement educational programme, with the company becoming an established part of the daily life of nursery school children and teachers ever since.
