KoKERS (TUBES)

A city, a wood, a house, a playground … Two dancers build their own world using cardboard tubes. How can you build a world – or break it down again? Do you do it together, or alone? What games can you play? Who makes the rules to make the game more fun? In KoKERS, two dancers discover how to play together. An imaginative performance about having fun, challenges, comforting and being there for one another. “Without words but with complete clarity, a children’s world is shown as it no doubt always is in those little heads. Recognisable, funny. Endearing and evocative. Small and modest, playful and light. A late summer gift for you and your little one.” Willem Nijssen PZC Walcheren, August 2016 “Finally, the toddlers are themselves allowed onto the stage to play in the landscape of tubes, and their enthusiastic play reveals how closely they have been paying attention. The result is a wonderful scene of little people playing in a cardboard landscape. Kokers is a total work of art in which all the elements come together perfectly.” Anita Twaalfhoven Theaterkrant, Amsterdam September 2016 (****)
