Rock Me Baby

Divadlo loutek Ostrava - Alternativní scéna

A punk-rock concert for newborns, toddlers, babies, toddlers, children, schoolchildren, young people and their parents. Glittering costumes, gelled hair and a bunch of flamboyant guys, and yet they are not the stars of summer festivals at all, but a Norwegian dance crew that, after last year's incredible success, is returning to Ostrava with its true rock experience for the little ones, their dads (and for the tough moms).

Rock Me Baby resonates with the courage to break social stereotypes and opens up space for sensitivity, playfulness and sharing from the earliest years of life. Five queer performers in bright costumes and punk style will entertain the little ones, excite the older ones and maybe even surprise you a little, but let's face it, we all need that sometimes.

Authors Karstein Solli and Øystein Elle, who have extensive experience with children's audiences, have created a production tailored to what the youngest audience can really handle, including sensitive work with sound and light. The result is an approachable and creative performance that resonates with anyone who opens up to it, regardless of age.
