Description:
Violet, a 4 year old girl, is looking forward to the arrival of her little brother Blue. At first, she is frustrated with the fact that he is still a baby, which requires the constant attention of the parents. However, time passes and the boy proves to be different from the other children, with a more introverted behavior, difficulty in developing speech and hyperfocus on some objects. Violet tries to find ways to interact with her brother, discovering that music creates a bridge of connection between them and that time plays an even more important role in their stories. Blue is a touching story that talks about fraternal love, being indicated for the whole family.

Effortlessly, and with a brutal simplicity very well printed on all layers of the artwork, Blue reaffirms the need to continue making theater through the centuries. Simply a scenic prayer at the center of the human spirit.
