PARTY

This one is for all the ‘party animals’! The title says it all: no sitting around and watching, but dancing, joy, maximum energy, and finally letting yourself go. Everybody is invited onto the dance floor. The audience and three performers dance together — accompanied by DJ Sarah Adorable — and tear down the fourth wall of the theatre. PARTY is an interactive performance where the public and performers dance together. It takes place in a specially designed room, with huge spills of color installed on the floor and ceiling, a live DJ and adults camouflaging into the space with masks and suits. In PARTY the public is not audiencing, they’re the party!  PARTY is our personal invitation to let loose, to be wild and to shake it up. Together we will build a space where we can dance and go crazy. We’ll take everybody to the max, we’ll dance till we drop, and then enter a new world together. A world where each person can dance how they really want. With PARTY we cross the borders of language and culture, everybody is invited to come and contribute to the party.
