Tell the children: “What is not dreamed will not happen”

True magic does not need huge decorations or complicated special effects. It can be born where the word meets mesmerizing music. In this way, in Firleju the door will open to the land that exists right next to us, although in the daily rush we rarely have time to look into it. “What is not dreamed will not happen” is an unusual meeting with a fairy tale, which proves that the most powerful images are formed in our heads.

In a world dominated by flashy fairy tales and ubiquitous screens, the Author's Theatre of Stories by Katarzyna Jackowska-Enemuo proposes a radical and at the same time delightful change of form. The performance is based on the archaic technique of story theater. On the stage we will not find complicated scenography or modern gadgets.

Instead, artists use the world's oldest tools: the human voice, the suggestive silence and the sound of instruments. It is from them that amazing stories are woven about a boy whose dream was desired by the greatest rulers, and about a magical tree that dreams our whole world. Viewers are also invited to this land — the creators encourage children to bring... their own, favorite dreams!

“What is not dreamed will not happen” is in equal measure a spectacle as an unusual concert for children. The stories of Katarzyna Jackowska-Enemuo (who, in addition to singing, plays the accordion, the daf drum and the African ngoni) are accompanied by the virtuoso of string instruments, Mateusz Szemraj.

Children will have a rare opportunity to hear live the sound of such unique instruments as oud, rubab, cymbals or telenka. This unusual, organic soundtrack does not allow boredom - it illustrates the adventures of the protagonists and makes the whole show a deep, sensory experience.

The creators of the play are not looking for cheap moralizing, but they touch on topics that in the modern world tend to be pushed to the sidelines. Tales from the land of dreams become a pretext for a beautiful conversation with a young audience about the courage to be yourself. It is a lesson in the fact that the invisible and the fleeting often conceals the greatest strength. The show teaches children to follow their own voice and shows how much value it is to share their emotions with others.

Looking for a smart event for children in Wroclaw, it is worth slowing down for a while. The author's Theatre of Stories by Katarzyna Jackowska-Enemuo proposes something completely unique — a return to the roots of performing arts. It is an ideal proposal for children from 5 years old and parents who want to give their children a space full of peace and closeness. Be sure to bring your dreams!
