Two characters meet, each has their own language of speaking, of moving. They try to connect and communicate – through dance, through play!
“Sitting down, discovering an empty space and completely transforming it from nothing into a playground, a place full of laughter or full of tears. Making it into something else, something new : a garden, a castle, a bedroom, a boat, the sea… using whatever comes into your head and letting your imagination ran wild. Childhood is a time where playing with 3 bricks can make you a builder, a pirate or even a princess where regards are great, emotions are strong and love is eternal. ” Laurence Henry
Artistic Director Lynda says: “This is such a dynamic and highly physical dance performance by two male performers who demonstrate their power, their emotion, along with their beautiful humour and connection to play.”
