In the Silence: Little Amal Visits Pasadena
Join the Armory, Pasadena Playhouse, and Deaf West Theater at Pasadena City Hall on November 1st to welcome Little Amal, an internationally celebrated, 12-foot walking puppet of a Syrian refugee girl. Amal’s visit to the Los Angeles region is part of Amal Walks Across America: a nationwide journey spanning more than 35 cities and towns.
While in Pasadena, Amal will meet a group of deaf children and understand that words aren’t everything. A lot can be said within the silence. Sometimes the loudest truths have no sound. Amal's City Hall visit will include elements of performance, percussion, and a drop-in artmaking activity with Armory Teaching Artists thematically tied to the day's events. This event is free and open to everyone.
