Performance synopsis

A dancing couple on a round stage reveals to the audience a world of magical ties which have always bound people together. Come closer, look, touch, feel. Look inside. Closeness – I, you, we – the family. We all carry a small part of it inside. By building ties, step by step, we open ourselves to the world. CLOSE is a dynamic performance, full of surprises, about building relationships. It’s a journey to the place we all come from in search of the common experiences that can bind us together.
