On and Off
for children from 3 to 6 years
When two musicians meet in a wonderful white room, they are surprised by a large pile of coloured clothing falling out of the closet. When this pile comes to life, a fantastic musical dress-up game begins. Come on, can’t you go faster? This is too tight! I want this one! Wow! Discovering, ‘putting on’, transforming and playing with the decor becomes one big adventure. Until it is time to put everything back neatly in the closet… Is the game still on?
On and Off is a poetic and humorous performance in which the music is just as varied and stimulating as the constantly changing outfits of the players. And did you know that you can also use your clothes as a musical instrument?
