Katharsis for Two-Year Olds: From Aristotle to the Puppet Theatre Tittut
Thompson 125
Do very small children really enjoy and benefit from live theatre performance? Does a 2-year old get anything out of seeing, e.g., Little Tiger and Little Bear? Stockholm’s Puppet Theatre Tittut thinks so—and they have 30 years experience to prove it. Sweden’s forward-looking culture policy recognizes the central role played by art and literature in the development of very young children. Find out in what special way theatre benefits its youngest audience members and how you can help enrich the lives of the children in your world.
