Two storytellers revisit the myth of the Tower of Babel in a tender fable about language, listening, and living together. A play accessible from elementary school onward, as profound as it is joyful, it explores misunderstandings with poetry.
Two friends, Tohu and Bohu, tell a story they invented: a people decide to build a tower, but relations become sour and the building struggles to rise.
Just like the characters in their story, Tohu and Bohu struggle to get along. One, confident, is very comfortable with words. The other, more shy, stutters and has difficulty finishing sentences. However, they will have to share the talking and listening to find the way to work together.
Revisiting the myth of the Tower of Babel, this tender play depicts a joyful story of speech. Both profound and simple, it offers a reflection on language accessible to young audiences.
