Paula, Peter and Panini - Jungle Vienna

In a world where magic and the atmosphere of the Earth are intertwined, a group of unusual heroes with mystical powers must confront the devastating reality of environmental destruction. The rider Paula and the soccer player Peter embark on an adventurous journey with Panini, the elf, to restore the balance of the world. A story invented, written, and illustrated by children for children. Direction and choreography transformed this fairy tale into an entertaining theater piece with the dancers. Students from the Academic Gymnasium and the Leonardo da Vinci School in Linz contributed music and sounds. The young authors and illustrators Lina Roth, as well as Liivo and Ravel Safron (ages 8-10), were awarded the u10 Prix Ars Electronica 2024.
