A piece about balance and the struggle for control over language and body.

With: Bruna Esposito, Judith Scherer, music: Rheinheart, with Texts from Dantes "Inferneo"

A long rectangular rooftop space, a sportsground topped with a cage and surrounded by the lights and sounds of the city. The audience sat in a single long row, each audience member seeing into the wide space from a different angle.
The three female performers were in the landscape-like space far apart and each for themselves. They were ,caged' within specific behaviour-structures, but they were confronted with the same outside reality that was established through a film installation. In the beginning of the piece their heads were all equally connected to the screens above them.
