Danse étoffée sur musique déguisée

The first piece by the ZOO / Thomas Hauert company for children is a solo performed to the Sonatas and Interludes for Prepared Piano by John Cage. A prepared piano is a piano that has been modified by inserting all kinds of objects between the strings. These simple materials take the instrument into acoustic territories as new as they are familiar. By applying this same idea to the body, this piece deviates from every theatre narrative and lets the imagination fly. Here, nothing is normal. Or rather, everything is extraordinary!

The Swiss dancer Thomas Hauert has had his own company since 1998 and has created dozens of pieces that he has taken on tour around the world. He has also created dances for P.A.R.T.S., the Zurich Ballet, the Toronto Dance Theatre and the Candoco Dance Company. In Barcelona, he has presented Modify, Walking Oscar and Accords with ZOO, the duet From B to B with Àngels Margarit and La mesura del desordre with the group La Bolsa.

Recommended for children from the age of five.
