Legacy Series Presents: Isidor's Cheek

Isidor’s Cheek is an adventure told in song and miniature puppets on a revolving table.

So begins the song, which begins the story, which begins the adventure: One day, something drives Isidor from his little gray existence. His cheek runs away, and Isidor must search around the world to find it again: a world of color and beauty, as well as loneliness and even danger. Inspired by a German children’s book.

Conceived by Ines Zeller Bass
Designed and Performed by Jana Zeller
Directed by Eric Bass
Music composed and recorded by Peter Tavalin

Jana performs Isidor’s Cheek on a revolving table filled with all the details of Isidor’s miniature world: from his shabby grey house to a forest of apple trees, through an unfriendly city, across a sea of turtles and barracuda, into the smallest circus in the world. The table revolves to bring Isidor home again and to transform his house, his garden and indeed his whole outlook on life. Isidor himself is barely five and half inches high, an appropriately little hero for a small story with a big heart.
