the Boy & the Ball at Lincoln Center

Bring the family for a story about how one friend can become many. In a quiet world, simply constructed from multiple cylinders of all shapes and sizes, we meet a very shy boy and witness how he makes a friend. This nonverbal performance is a wondrous tale of reassurance, joy, and connection… with a little magic. Developed over two years in close consultation with a highly experienced team of artists and educators alongside the participation of young children, the Boy & the Ball is exquisitely nuanced to engage young audiences in storytelling wonder. *Sunday, May 10, 2026 at 11:00 am & 2:00 pm is a Relaxed Performance.
