Pohang Cultural Foundation Hosts 'Kids Festa in SUMMER' to Welcome Summer

'Kids Festa in POHANG' Continues with Summer Children's Performance Series

Pohang Cultural Foundation Hosts Kids Festa in SUMMER to Welcome the Summer Season.

[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Dongguk Lee] The Pohang Cultural Foundation, following the successful hosting of the ‘Kids Festa in POHANG’ series, will hold the ‘Kids Festa in SUMMER’ series throughout July, the summer season, at the Pohang Culture and Arts Center and Pohang City Hall Daejam Hall.

The ‘Kids Festa in SUMMER’ will present a total of three performances to the public. First, on July 1 at 7:30 PM in the Small Theater of the Pohang Culture and Arts Center, ‘Croquiky Brothers’ will showcase a ‘Drawing Circus’ armed with colorful and ingenious ideas.

The Drawing Circus is a new performance style unique to Croquiky Brothers that transforms drawing into a spectacular performance akin to a circus. It won the Minister of Culture, Sports and Tourism Award in 2017 and has been invited as a featured act to numerous countries.

From July 16 to 17 at 11 AM and 2 PM in the Grand Theater of the Pohang Culture and Arts Center, the ‘Brush Theater Company,’ a troupe more famous overseas than domestically, will present their new immersive family musical ‘Alpi’ in four performances.

This work was selected for the ‘National Performing Arts Creation, Production, and Distribution Cooperation Project’ this year and is supported by government funding. ‘Immersive performances’ break down the boundaries between the audience and the stage, allowing the audience to create the performance together with the actors on stage, offering a new experience of becoming one with the play.

Finally, on July 30 at 5 PM in Pohang City Hall Daejam Hall, a performance of the classic novel ‘The Little Prince’ set to classical music will be held. This is an excellent repertoire performance by Bellamichi Culture and Arts Research Institute, selected for this year’s ‘Resident Performing Arts Group Development Support Project.’ The performance reinterprets the original novel by matching classical music that suits the theme of each chapter.

Tickets for the ‘Kids Festa in SUMMER’ series will go on sale to the general public from 2 PM on June 16. Various discounts ranging from 10% to 50% will be offered, and reservations can be made through the Ticketlink website and by phone.

A representative of the Pohang Cultural Foundation said, “We are grateful for the interest and support of over 5,000 citizens who participated in the previous ‘Kids Festa in POHANG’ series. We hope everyone will enjoy the ‘Kids Festa in SUMMER,’ where top artists will present performances they have researched and developed over a long time.”
