“It is only with the heart that one can see rightly; what is essential is invisible to the eye.”
Walls of Boxes, directed by Nelly Chernetskaya, is inspired by Antoine de Saint-Exupery’s “The Little Prince”. Original songs (in both English & Russian) and instrumental music are composed and performed by Luba Hilman.
This thought-provoking production invites audiences on a journey of introspection and self-discovery. The artists use visuals, sound, movement, and spoken word to reveal the intricate layers of truth and emotion that are often neglected in our everyday lives.
Nelly Chernetskaya is a theatre director and artist who has studied, directed, and performed in Russia, Germany, and England. Nelly’s primary aim is to find a unity that speaks to every living being, despite our differences.
