Elsewhere (Woanders)
object theatre for all audiences aged 5 and over
Early in the morning, huge garbage trucks rattle through the streets and swallow up our rubbish before disgorging it elsewhere. What happens to our trash there, and who takes care of it? Elsewhere, completely different rules apply, different beings live there, different things happen. Elsewhere, cleaning sponges whizz around gleefully, witches concoct enchanted slime in bins and a plastic mound gracefully pirouettes. It’s a realm both magical and vibrant, but also a bit dirty, smelly and scary.
We challenge you to embark on a journey, transporting you to this alternate realm. Our stage is populated by small robots, an inquisitive vacuum cleaner and all kinds of creatures fashioned from trash. Through a vibrant object theater, we weave a tale of this captivating dimension without words but with lots of music.
