Spiel im Spiel / Game into game (3+)

BELGIAN PREMIERE

When we play, anything is possible: the floor is made of lava, objects fly through the air and everyday items take on a whole new meaning. The stool is a raft, a bridge, a house, and a tower. It stands on its head, lies on its side, stands on its feet... From an almost infinite selection of possibilities, new worlds with their own sets of rules emerge playfully, and they are repeatedly changed, expanded, discarded.

But how does one game lead to the next?
Who decides what happens next?
Who makes the rules and how do you make the best decision?
And what happens if someone doesn't want to take part?

Three dancers get involved in the ‘game into game’ to explore different rules, spaces, and choices of each other’s world of games. They tear down one in order to build and explore another one. Game into game is a virtuous, playful, humorous and touching dance piece for not only children but also their families at the same time.
