Returning to MANIPULATE with a live presentation of this special show which was staged online during 2020 as part of our online programme.
The Yellow Canary is both an epic true story and a leap into the imagination of a young child desperate to escape the horrors of war, exploring love, loss and what it means to flee your home.
When Bernard, a young Jewish boy, is forced to leave his home city of Paris with just his parents and his pet canary for company, a dangerous journey in search of safety begins. The Yellow Canary is both an epic true story and a leap into the imagination of a young child desperate to escape the horrors of war, exploring love, loss and what it means to flee your home. It is a show for all ages comprising storytelling and animation and will be premiered live at Manipulate 2022.
The Yellow Canary brings together performance maker Tashi Gore with visual theatre expert Ross MacKay and playwright Will Gore to work in a hybrid format of live performance and digital animation.
