“Un ratón en la Luna” (A Mouse in the Moon)Live Show In Malaga this Christmas

Living here in Andalucia we are always looking for events and activities that will keep our children entertained especially during the school holidays and even more so during the winter months when the weather is not so good and the children start to get bored as they can get out and play. Me and my family have lived here for 5 years now and have been settled in our town house in Alhaurin el Grande for the last 4 years, and our 8 year old boy has settled into his life here in Spain very well and has asked me what can he do during the holidays. Serching around I have found a great event which sounds like a great bit of fun for all the family at an exceptional cost The Gades hall in Malaga which is part of the Teatro Canovas is the venue for a production known as "Un ratón en la Luna" (A Mouse in the Moon) The show is an an adaptation by Julia Ruiz of a story writain by Paco and José Vigueras It tells the story of Ulises, a traveller ,glutton -and also a mouse- who once tried to eat the moon because he thought it was cheese hanging down from the sky. He turns to his friend Cali for help after failing in his attempt to eat the moon on numerous occasions . His friend agrees to help and the mouse then embarks on a space journey in search for his longed-for delicacy The two actors are Fran Machado and Verónica Pérez who together are known as PINPONCLOWN Like many performances of childrens theatre there is also a lesson to be learnt though the story and that is the lesson the  appearances can be deceiving, It is part of the "Tales of Science" programme, a wonderful project which is the brainchild of the Granada Science Park . The idea reconciles science with the performing arts The show is going to performed over two days with 1 show per day Performance Dates/Times/Cost 27th December 18.30 6€ 28th December 12.00 6€ For More Information On the Show please contact Gades Hall C/ Cerrojo, s/n MÁLAGA Or visit the website: www.juntadeandalucia.es/cultura/teatrocanovas
