The contemporary circus work Kukko Kiekuu by TipTop Walkers’ production partner Duo Color Express is a story-driven adventure aimed at the youngest members of the family in a wonderful rural world.
The work features Kukko, Pig and a barn that comes to life. The story and crazy coincidences are told through circus, physical comedy, puppetry and live music.
The performance is a hilarious collection of different characters, a colorful soundscape and, among other things, gym ball acrobatics.
The work begins with a morning wake-up call at a farmhouse when Kukko wakes up his friend Pig for the day’s chores. As Pig and Kukko go about their tasks, all sorts of strange things happen and things get even wilder when a strange glowing egg ends up in the barn in the yard.
The barn eventually comes to life and tries to devour the entire rural idyll, but Pig and Kukko are too much for it. At the end of the fast-paced adventure, the duo gets the strange barn back on track and the situation calms down.
The show mainly talks about the rooster, a little about the pig and the barn, so the show is also well suited for multilingual audiences.
