Whether we like it or not, light and shadow belong together. It is impossible to escape our shadow. It may change its shape and size, but it never disappears. Really never? On the contrary. After spending far too long in the background, shadows are finally in the spotlight themselves! But how is this possible? It almost seems as if the door to another world has been opened.
With a few objects and flashlights, Sarah Chaudon and Clara Palau y Herrero take us into their fascinating universe. The shadows divide, take shape, dance around, merge with each other or simply disappear. Inspired by the reading of Roberto Casati's book "The Discovery of the Shadow", the trio has developed a clever and above all humorous piece. In it, the possibilities of shadow theater are repeatedly explored in surprising new ways, for which they were awarded the Icelandic "Fox Award for Innovation in Puppetry".
