And then a visitor knocks on the door. Very carefully she opens it and standing there in front of her is someone completely different from her. But how can you communicate with someone that doesn't have a head?
“Drinnen regnet es nicht” is a play for children, that asks universal questions about loneliness and being alone. Together with her ensemble, Cornelia Hanselmann, the young dancer and choreographer from Aargau, has developed poetic playful imagery oriented towards childlike realms of fantasy. Play and movement, space and live-illustration, music and objects are all equally important.
„Drinnen regnet es nicht“ is based on stories from the children's book „Die Einsamkeit des Igels“ ("The Loneliness of the Hedgehog") by Dutch author Toon Tellegen.
