HERE COMES KAYA AND ROTI! “Where Are Our Friends?”
Kaya and Roti love to tell stories and sing nursery rhymes. More importantly, they love meeting new friends. But… with everyone stuck at home, what can they do? With the help of their pal Guyou, Kaya and Roti must rally together, get creative and find new ways to connect with their friends!
Playful, imaginative and engaging, HERE COMES KAYA AND ROTI! “Where Are Our Friends?” reinvents classic Mandarin nursery rhymes as a three-episode interactive family show series.
HERE COMES KAYA AND ROTI! “Where Are Our Friends?” is an extension of Practice’s award-winning work in Mandarin Theatre For Young Audiences. Get the kids off the couch with sing-alongs, improvisational storytelling, craft sessions and more, peppered with audience participation and live interactions from the cast.
The HERE COMES KAYA AND ROTI! series is part of The Nursery Rhymes Project.
The Nursery Rhymes Project preserves the classic melodies and stories we grew up loving, while offering a modern refresh for future generations. Each instalment consists of three parts: Sing Our Songs (music album), Paint Our Songs (illustrated lyric book) and Imagine Our Songs (live performance).
