In ABC, the youngest audience is welcomed into an amazing alphabet studio, where two circus artists have been given the daunting task of getting through the 29 letters of the alphabet in just 35 minutes. It will be the start of an inventive and acrobatic circus journey through a rebellious alphabet. Wild capitals tumble upward as princes and swans step out of their frames to help. ABC is a dizzying journey through the alphabet where the letters finally decide to dance a ballet high up in the clouds.

With ABC - A Painters Alphabet, Kompani Giraff wants to offer a humorous and ingenious circus and magic show that arouses curiosity and creative reading comprehension for children aged three to nine.
