On a windswept island, two puffins, Maki and Mako, search for each other, find each other, and coexist with human visitors passing through their territory. Between curiosity, clumsiness, and bursts of laughter, they learn to know each other, share their sky, their cliffs, and their silences, until the great leap of their first flight, taken together.
Accompanied by live harp, this funny and poetic show invites little ones on a gentle journey where sound, gesture, and texture tell as much of the story as words. The puppets come to life through the pages of a giant book that turns alternately into scenery, island, sea, and sky.
Maki & Mako delicately explores the coexistence between the natural world and the human world.
The show awakens in young audiences a sensitive attention to what surrounds them — and to those who, like puffins, share the same planet with them.
