Salto Lamento

Danish premiere
Large picture

A drawer opens - Secret messages escape and lure creatures - half man half beast, like Centaurs.

They are forcing their way into the back rooms of memory where they meet with a multi-faced death - effortlessly, dancing, almost skipping. Reflecting the artistic tradition of the Dance of the Dead from medieval iconography, a ring of poetic and bizarre metamorphoses unfolds.

A trio of music, puppet and dance. The Figuren Theater Tuebingen has been collaborating with the duo Rat’n’X for 15 years. Their music has given a strong musical imprint to the development of the theatre.

For the first time, this new production features the musicians live on stage with puppeteer Frank Soehnle.

Sunday the 15 Nov. at 10 AM there will be a one-hour workshop, in which the involved from the theatre will demonstrate how they use music in their performance.
