Laatikon ulkopuolelta (Outside the box)
is a dance performance in and around a sandbox
In this performance, dancers conjure up something exciting from the everyday, as a fast-paced dance takes over the playground and the boxes spin in the air! Audience is invited to move according to the rules and to invent their own rules if the old ones are not working. The participatory work aimed at pre-school children offers an easily approachable touch on the art of dance and raises thoughts about fairness.
Audience comments:
– "This was good!"
-Child 4 years old
– "A really wonderful performance! I just smiled from start to finish!"
-Kindergarten teacher
– "It was really funny and the best part was when you danced with those boxes on your head!"
-Child 5 years old
– "The rhythm of participation and watching worked really well. Even our lively 1-year-old had time to watch from start to finish"
-Kindergarten teacher
– "There should be more performances like this in kindergartens."
-Director of the daycare center
