CARE WITH HANDLE
A performance that invites people to spontaneously encounter others.
5 performers manipulate 30 white cardboard boxes and 50 orange balls to create a scenography for a communal juggling performance that inspires friendliness and curiosity. Through their juggling, their movements and their play, the performers directly involve the audience in collaborative games of carrying, throwing, stacking and dancing. The games are punctuated by short, fun and precise juggling choreographies, giving the audience moments to watch, breathe and enjoy together. Connections between strangers grow and a playful and uplifting energy spreads through the public space, overcoming cultural and social boundaries and facilitating new perspectives on communication.
