When the Clock Strikes Midnight…

Pattihio Limassol Municipality Theatre , Friday 30 June, 20.30

...In a picturesque area of the town the shops with appealing window displays attract the attention of those passing by… Families and friends are out enjoying their shopping.

The clock in the town square is ticking away, as the clock hands rhythmically rotate in a circular motion and then the night falls…

The last customers leave and the stores are now empty.

The guard, singing quietly makes the final checks.

Meanwhile, the darkness magically spreads, mystically like a dream…when suddenly everything is illuminated with extraordinary glittering rays of magical light; the mythical Northern lights appear, emitting a beautiful combination of colours covering the entire town and all the shops with mysticism.

The clock strikes midnight and all awaken the guard ecstatic wonders if he is dreaming or is awake!

The shops come to life through movement and vibrant colours. The Aurora, with its soft touch, has enchanted them all! Everything inside begins to move and turns into a magical dance full of expression and emotion leading us to another dimension. The beautiful movements of all the toys, dolls, books, animals, musical instruments, sweets, jewellery that come to life, capture and magnetise the attention of the viewer’s confusing the minds between reality and dreams!

With the crack of dawn, this spectacular spell begins to fade, when everything goes back to cold reality and the everyday routine and only the sweet memories and wonderful images remain in the mind….
