Shall we … together (2,5+ and senior citizens)

Dance performance for children from 2,5 years old and senior citizens |

tout petit | Belgium |

Shall we … laugh, watch and play together?

This site-specific performance focuses on the encounter. The encounter between two dancers balancing each other, but also the encounter between young children, adults and senior citizens. After all, they enjoy a dance performance together. A performance in which two dancers challenge each other to push boundaries.

Throughout the performance, the encounter grows. At the start, the audience takes seats facing each other, the stage surface with the two dancers lies between them. In this way, the audience does not only watch the dancers, they also watch each other. After the performance, the audience are brought together during an interactive moment for play.

They explore together.
