Summary

It is an invitation to revisit for the last time, under the impromptu tent of a dreaming, mischievous and witty brother and sister.
A show to bring back childhood memories of school, punishments, notes from teachers, birthday treats and eerie fairytales.
A show to gently deride parents, their sermons and minor anxieties.
A show to tentatively evoke an erstwhile Beirut.
A fantasy to talk about oneself, puppy love, teenage reveries and adult desires.
A sweet fantasy, nostalgic, joyful and malicious.
An all-color fantasy!
