Everything we do and every thought we have comes from feelings. Feelings show up very easily, but it's not always simple to decide what to do with them. Panda Express is a performance performed by the persona – Sir Panda – and aims to capture the curiosity of children/young people and their families through its unpredictability, presenting multiple scenes inspired by the color spectrum of human emotions. Each scene integrated in this performance is intentionally designed in order to (simultaneously) interpret, promote emotional intelligence and healthy reflection of different emotions through non-verbal communication, developing their perception. The public is an essential part of the action, being an active agent and activator of the performance.
