What new dimensions emerge from the transfer of a children’s literary story to the theater stage? We will learn what tools are used when adapting picture books for the smallest, collections of poems or prose for children based on examples of the children’s theater Pradžia and global examples of production of children’s performances. We will discuss what challenges theater creators face when adapting a work of literature, and how to overcome those challenges. We will find out how different theater disciplines can properly accompany the transformation of the work to the stage and what makes the modern young audience special.
