IN OUR HANDS

A production about a new perspective on what we really have in our hands, combining physical theater, acrobatics and parkour

 

What do we really have in our hands?

 

From the tenderness hidden in a loving embrace to planting a flower in the dirt to powerful gestures, it is the hands that transform human thoughts into actions and inspiration into works. In our fingers and palms, we are given the power to influence and change the state of things, our surroundings, and even the world. But how do we really change it? The production In Our Hands is a celebration of nonverbal communication as the key to understanding the world and ourselves. In a dynamic combination of physical theater, acrobatics, parkour, and live music, the audience embarks on a journey where every gesture becomes a message and an opportunity for a new perspective on what we truly have in our hands.

 

Led by renowned Australian director Darcy Grant, In Our Hands represents a new direction for Laterna Magika, expanding its artistic repertoire with international collaborations with top-notch creators.
