Tembo (5+) - Rode Boom / k. demey & l. buysschaert (BE)

There is an elephant in the square. ‘Tembo’ is his name. In his belly lives a little lady with a head full of stories. Whoever dares may come to visit, but where you end up, you never know in advance. Maybe you slide under the tail of a mermaid, or you dive straight into a molehill. Every 15 minutes, a new magical adventure unfolds. ‘Tembo’ is a crossover of storytelling and mentalism, in which coincidences accumulate into a memorable moment of wonder. An experience for young and old inside the belly of an almost lifelike elephant. A love letter to dreamers, wonder, and the art of getting lost in a story. Do you dare to step inside? The life-sized and hyper-realistic elephant naturally attracts a wide strolling audience at circus festivals or elsewhere.
