ABOUT THE
SHOW: Joni is a
puppeteer. Dana is not. Dana is a
Jew. Joni is not.
Buttons
is a show about their journey to Auschwitz and the stories they
discovered on the way. Using a mixture of live performance,
spoken word, shadow puppetry and object manipulation Joni and Dana
attempt to recount the story of their ?sort of' holiday, whilst
exploring the themes of memory, family and war.

Sort of Theatre Company. A workshop for anyone interested in
learning more about telling stories through puppets and objects.

and puppetry.
Sort
Of Theatre is a process based devising company who savour in not
only the devising journey they take with each project, but also in
developing their autobiographical work through the personal journey
they undertake. They use puppetry not to just illustrate these
stories but to illuminate them. They use the power that puppetry
has to bring a visceral emotive response to their audiences.
A part of
the Little Angel Theatre's Suspense Festival.
