World of Wonder co-presented with Pittsburgh International Children’s Theater
World of Wonder is a program designed for the whole family as well as school groups. It is theater that charms audiences of all ages with the actor’s imagination, the mime’s skill, and the conjurer’s craft. Beginning with the amazing and lost art of shadowgraphs or hand shadows, Leland conjures up an amazing menagerie of silhouettes using only his hands. Discover classical magic from the Far East as a Japanese magician lets folded paper butterflies fill the air with color in a beautiful homage to Old Japan. Longer performances may include his film, The Sky God’s Dance, a shadow play using cut-outs and 16mm film, based on his memories of life in Africa.
