After performance discussion with the creative team!
Details constitute the whole, contrasts create dynamics, and movements lead to dance. Interactive dance performance "Unseen World" is full of various movements, colours and surfaces, awakening the senses of little ones and developing their ability to notice details, connect the whole from the details and creatively respond to the ideas proposed by the dancers. The performance invites children to become active participants in the action and at the same time leaves the little ones the freedom to decide when and how they would like to join the performance process.
Dancers: Giedrė Subotinaitė, Agnė Ramanauskaitė
Scenography and costumes: Medilė Šiaulytytė;
Music: Valerio Camporini Faggioni
