Children's theatre "Shh! We have a Plan" to be staged in January
****************************************************************
     Cahoots NI from the United Kingdom will perform the children's play "Shh! We have a Plan" in January. The production is adapted from a picture book by Chris Haughton and is suitable for audiences ages 3 and above.
 
     The story of "Shh! We have a Plan" follows a family of three, who venture into the depths of the forest and become attracted by a colourful bird perched high in a tree. The family quietly launches an absurd bird-hunting plan.
 
     Using non-verbal movements, amusing props and lifelike puppets, the actors convey the message that treating nature with respect is more important than getting what one wants at all cost.
 
     Cahoots NI, based in the Northern Ireland capital of Belfast, is a theatre company producing boldly innovative works for children and their families. Their distinctive style combines magic and illusion, physical theatre and original music. This creative group tours to ever-growing audiences at home and across the world. Cahoots NI's works are acclaimed in Ireland, across the United Kingdom, Asia and America. The troupe's performances have been enjoyed in theatres, schools and healthcare settings since 2001.
