Sound theatre performance about a boy who does not talk but expresses himself through sound and music.

Bumm, krach, peng presents a character of an unusual boy, who does not talk words but communicates with sounds and music instead. If each thing has its own sound, than by playing them he can describe the world and express himself. But when the boy discovers his new language and presents it to his parents, the doctors, teacher and his school mate, he is confronted by repression. They all see his creativity, imagination and uniqueness as a disturbance that has to be corrected. In the world which is subjected to the rules and social conventions, there is no room for a noise-making child. He has to learn human language and confront to the majority. The boy is growing up, discovering his difference and looking for ways how he can retain his individuality in the world of limitations and prohibitions.

The actors and musicians ask themselves what would happen with each one of us if he or she would become a noise making child. They present the story  by playing and animating multitude of different instruments and sound-makers, created out of everyday objects. They are developing a genre of sound theater where sound becomes equal to the other elements of theater.

Runtime: 50 minutes.

Recommended for children from 6 years onward.
