— SYNOPSIS
Liebe, the fairy who brings red to the human world, is the most loved color of all. Then a "gray terror" begins to strike the other color towns. Afraid her red town will be covered in gray, Liebe waits for the culprit at the village gate and meets Leben, the fairy of gray. Leben says nobody likes gray, so she hates every other color. But a rainbow needs rain, and the two realize the human world needs both of them.
— DIRECTOR’S NOTE
The piece was selected by the National Theater Company of Korea to mark the 100th anniversary of Children's Day in 2022. Liebe means "love" in German and Leben means "life": the play says there is always love inside life. Young audience members help the characters by finding objects hidden around the auditorium, talking to them and solving the case step by step. Movement was set tightly to the score using "Mickey Mousing," a technique borrowed from animation.
