Yumé

Dance
 

Bringing together younger and older people in a show, Yumé takes the audience on a magical, mysterious ride via a wordless narrative
construction linked to virtuoso physical contemporary dance. When her shadow is stolen, the heroine immediately starts looking for it and unwittingly sets off on an amazing journey. The adventure takes her across fantastic lands to meet strange and eccentric characters. At the bottom of the sea and lost among the clouds, she discovers supernatural places
where the laws of nature are disturbed.

“The applause from the audience reveals that the show delights older people as much as it does youngsters. The story draws on images that create an open poetic feel, accessible in some degree
to the whole audience.” Paul Rassat, Talpa Mag
