I See Red
A story about discovering what you've been missing.
A theatre performance for preschool-aged audiences.
A man lives happily in his world of white. Simple white corflute becomes stepping stones, letter boxes, tiny homes to jump over, a small, perfect universe, built just so. Then one day, through a letter box, something arrives. RED. Surprising. Loud. It doesn't belong. It's got to go. But RED keeps returning. Persistent. Playful. Quietly magical. Until something shifts. A space appears that wasn't there before, a shape only RED can fill. A warm, wordless story about the wonder of welcoming something different. And the joy of discovering that sometimes one surprising piece makes a world feel whole.
