“The Little One in the Dark Forest” by award-winning French writer Philippe Minyana travels to the Festival d'Avignon and is presented at the Gymnase du lycée Saint-Joseph for three unique performances. Last year, he had time and performed just before all theaters were closed due to the pandemic. Pantelis Dentakis (director of the show) together with the Black Forest team created a show structured and designed in such a way that it can easily travel and be presented in different venues. The special composition of media and arts, gives this artistic work the possibility to connect aesthetically with theatrical, but also industrial spaces, with galleries, museums, and small outdoor spaces. THE STRUCTURE OF THE PERFORMANCE It is an artistic composition of theater, microsculpture, video art, cinema and music. The “protagonists” of the show are small sculptures, representing the five heroes of the play, the Little One, the King, the Queen, the Son, the Old Woman. The two actors give voice through microphones to the miniatures, move them around the space, but at the same time interact by identifying themselves with the faces of the story. They constantly alternate roles: from storytellers to actors, from animators to sufferers. The stage of the show is a structure consisting of two screens, where the surrounding spaces (forest, hut, palace, garden, etc.) are projected using the technique of video-art, in which miniatures “act”. At the same time, in the background (above and behind the actors) he is presented with video projection, an enriched version of video-art, including miniatures, playing with the montage and with the different shots, focusing on faces, bodies, details of small sculptures. The sound environment is a key part of the show. Music and sounds run throughout the work, heightening the atmosphere of suspense and the sense of ominousness.
