Childhood memories, dance and handmade figures intertwine to create a dance theatre piece that, rather than explaining things, conjures up a kaleidoscope of situations.
Verena Wilhelm, tanznetz.de

"When you think back to when you were my age, what is the first image that comes to mind when you think of your home back then? Do you also remember sounds from the past? What made you particularly happy when you were my age? What worried you most as a child? And is there anything you regret – something you did or didn't do when you were young?"

When your grandparents were young, the world was a very different place. Sometimes they even grew up in a different country. For this production, children become detectives and set out on their own search for different – perhaps even hidden – family stories and things that remind them of these stories. With these findings, the children work on small scenes, games or pictures in workshops lasting several days.

Together with two dancers, all the stories and ideas are turned into a dance theatre piece that can be performed anywhere – in schools, gyms, clubs and theatres.
