International Arts Carnival to inspire babies and toddlers with visuals and sounds in performances (with photos)
******************************************************************************************
     The summer festival International Arts Carnival (IAC) will present a variety of events for children and families. This year, there will be two programmes for those aged 3 and under. They are the dance theatre production "Puzzle" by Dansema Dance Theater of Lithuania and the interactive concert "Beatles for Babies" by La Petita Malumaluga of Spain.

     In "Puzzle", three dancers use brightly hued geometric shapes to form puzzles and simple objects such as fruits and vegetables, enchanting babies and toddlers with body movements to create an artistic experience. The musical accompaniment is masterfully composed to make the little ones feel at home, and young audience members can join in the playful scenes onstage.
 
     "Yellow Submarine", "Hey Jude", "Yesterday" and other hits by the Beatles are among the highlights of "Beatles for Babies". Musicians playing violin, saxophone, cello and percussion will team up with a poetic dancer to introduce tiny tots to the unforgettable sounds of the legendary UK band. Toddlers will experience the creative arts in the enlightening show when they tune in and move freely around the stage to the beats and melodies.
