Four lives of solitude intersect, sometimes without ever seeing one another, in a neighborhood that could be just like ours. “What is half of the whole? Is there any space other than the one we leave for the other? Who maintains the social elevator? If you let me down, will I break?” The characters’ poetry and their silent questions echo the absurdity of our world and the urgency of connecting to act together. In this new production by DÍRTZtheatre, live music accompanies an offbeat perspective on reality, which touches us with its slightly rough tenderness. “Why will I probably never hold you in my arms?” A physical puppet theater where our bodies are swept up in a sensitive journey, to celebrate our uniqueness together.

Four solitary figures cross paths, sometimes without seeing one another, in a neighborhood that could resemble our own. “Is there only the space we leave for the other? If you let me fall, do I break?” The characters’ poetry and their silent questions echo the absurdity of our world and the urgency of connecting to act together. In this new production by DÍRTZtheatre, live music accompanies a skewed view of reality, touching us with its somewhat rough tenderness. 'Why will I probably never hug you?' A physical puppet theater where our bodies are drawn into a dynamic and moving performance to collectively celebrate our singularities.
