Light and shadow belong together, that's for sure. But what happens when the shadows suddenly develop a life of their own? Liberated from the laws of physics, they multiply at will and come into the limelight!
This delightful show is a journey through an enchanted city, with two puppeteers creating and leading us into the magical universe of shadows, where everyday objects perform their own little dance of freedom. Mischievous shadows come in the back door and steal our things. They get bigger and smaller, they split and merge. They start interacting with the world and the relationship between objects and their shadows becomes blurry. It almost seems as if the door to another world has been opened…
