Caterpillars is a physical comedy based loosely on the life cycle of two personified caterpillars/butterflies, and told by two less-than-capable clown puppeteers. The fantasty world of giant caterpillars, floating eggs, and waving flowers is grounded heavily in reality by the puppeteers. This is the first Kallo Collective show targeted for children, although the style stays true to the company's universal style and crosses all age and language barriers.
