PRISMA (7+)

When light falls on a prism, it splits into a bright band of colour. One colour becomes something colourful and diverse. The dance performance Prisma transfers this function to people. Because even if we all see the same thing, everyone has their own, different world of imagination. The starting point is three children's books, in which fascinating worlds open up: sometimes imaginative, like the ‘wild guys’, sometimes microscopically small, with a strange appearance, sometimes in metamorphosis, like the ‘very hungry caterpillar’, which becomes a butterfly. The figures, images and stories become movements and merge into a world that is mysterious, humorous, colourful, unexpected and follows no logic.

Flexible performance dates at the school between 15 September and 17 September 2025. The dates and performance times will be adapted to the needs of the school.
