The list
character
“But just as much of a star in this show is the live foley soundtrack. It’s magical to see the array of wacky and wonderful tools on display at the back of the stage, where two nimble technicians create textures and layers of sound, from cartoon voices to whispering raindrops. “
Edinburgh Festival
“Little Drops of Rain is an ASMR feast for the ears.”
“On stage and entirely visible, the sound station is almost distractingly interesting.”
“The noisemakers look on the performance with sharp eyes, perfectly timing their sounds to the movement of the puppets, which are distinctive and enchanting.”“The show inspires feelings rather than comprehension, simulating the audience with audio delights”

Tiny elements weave a vast tapestry, where we breathe and move with freedom.
We embrace life’s beauty alongside a girl named Hope, a gentle cloud, and a newly born raindrop, as they courageously explore new sounds, characters, and languages.
In their journey, we uncover the magical ties between people, matter, and existence, and discover the precious gifts in every meeting and adventure.
| Taiwan Season: Little Drops of Rain |
A family show like no other from a company that specialises in creating original, innovative theatrical stories. Plucky young Hope lives in a drought-ridden time and place. Then a chance encounter with one precious, resilient drop of water sends her on an adventurous and life-changing quest. Full of inviting, imagination-tickling charm, director Hsin-Huei Hung’s production is a feat of non-verbal, environmentally-conscious storytelling ingeniously led by Foley sound. Lighting, live sound and music and performance techniques all combine here to enchanting and urgent effect. There is also a varied and surprising use of non-traditional puppetry. Bonus feature: many of the props and set-pieces will be locally-sourced. European premiere.
