The magical power of the Caravan Orchestra

We were in the Center for Autism in Zagreb and we were just about to start the show, when a beautiful girl named Lara started to feel angry. Her assistant tried to calm her down and get her focused on the show, but Lara was restless and did not stop screaming. The show started, but Lara could not calm down.

After a couple of minutes, Lara’s assistant decided to take her back to her room. She gently took Lara’s hand and went towards the door. She explained to the clowns that Lara was tired and that she needed to rest.

In that very moment one of our clowns, Dr. Žulee, started to sing Lara’s name, he wanted her to feel special regardless of her leaving the show.

As soon as Lara heard her name, she stopped screaming and slowly started approaching Dr. Žulee. She danced with him, smiled, and at the end of her song, she jumped and hugged him with her legs and arms. Lara was so joyful and positive; all that anger from the beginning was way behind her.

That moment of transformation was magical for the clowns as it was for Lara and for the whole group. After her song was finished, Lara gently went back to her seat and was able to enjoy the full show peacefully and happy.
