Spiel im Spiel (Le jeu dans le jeu)

When this trio of dancers begins moving to music, anything suddenly becomes possible on stage: strange things drift through the air, the floor turns to lava, and everyday objects acquire an entirely new meaning. A stool becomes a raft, a bridge or a house, or even a tower that stands upside down, collapses onto the ground and rises again. From these endless possibilities emerges a new language and a new set of rules. Who will know how to play? Who will want to keep the game going? And what happens when someone no longer wishes to take part?

The performers of Spiel im Spiel (literally “the game within the game”) are fully immersed in this curious world of shifting rules, where new ideas and spaces continuously appear. A lively, humorous and deeply touching performance that will delight both children and adults alike.
