El viaje de Matilde

A Cuerpo's first show"El viaje de Matilde" (Matilde's journey) was funded by the Arts Council, Creative Leicestershire, Social Capital Funding, Nottingham City Council and Melton Borough Council.

It is an original script in Spanish written for UK children aged 6 to 11.

The Story

The main character is a cheeky eight year-old Spanish girl called Matilde.
Matilde leads a normal life, she lives in a small town in Spain with her family, goes to school and has friends...but she is not completely happy, as she dreams of travelling to the jungle and having lots of adventures.
Luckily Matilde's dad is an inventor and he is working on an instant travelling machine...Well, Matilde can't help herself and decides to build the machine herself...
As you can imagine things aren't as easy as they look and Matilde gets into one or two tight spots...so be ready to lend her a hand...or a foot!
