Baby Days | Čalotāji 1+

A baby’s journey through sound, colour and movement
Age | 1 to 3 years
Duration | 35 min

The performance “Čalotāji” is specially created for the very youngest audience. On stage, we meet Lili and Arvo—explorers of sound and shape, or “chatterers”—who have arrived to discover with the babies the sounds, colours and shapes that inhabit the space. The performance is designed as a gradual journey of discovery: each element enters the space step by step, creating a colourful world of sound.

“Čalotāji” is based on the way babies naturally explore the world—through sight, hearing, touch and movement. The little audience member is not just a spectator, but becomes an active participant who looks, listens, touches and feels. It is a performance in which theatre grows together with the child and their curiosity—slowly, attentively and joyfully.
