Brief Introduction:

For every child, the pangs of loneliness and fear caused by solitude are often a part of the process of growing up.  Based on a story with puppets, this play called “The Lonely Panda’s Disappearing Act” shows how puppets can become children’s true friends and companions, bringing memorable childhood experiences.  This play explores two central themes, namely that of the wish of making oneself invisible (to escape being mocked by society due to one’s appearances) and the depth of a loving friendship symbolized by hugging. This thought-provoking play will serve as a source of consolation and enlightenment to both children and parents.
