I Spy, with my little eye

There is a dance theatre play.
It is about perception.

The play is called: I Spy, with my little eye.

It is a dance theatre play.
It is about perception.
And about reality.

Perception means:
How you see something.
How you understand something.

Many people see the same thing.
But they think about it differently.
They understand it in different ways.

This is called perception.

What is it about in general?

The play asks:
What is real?
Do all people see the same thing?

It shows:
Every person sees the world in a different way.
Often we see only a small part of it.

What is it about exactly?

In the play, a dancer is on stage.
She shows what she thinks
with movement and dance.

The play says:
We see the world like through a keyhole.
We see only a small piece.
Even so, we often think:
We know everything.

Many images come from the media.

Media are, for example:
Television
or the Internet.

These images influence us.
Especially young people.

The play makes people aware:
You must look carefully.
And not believe everything.

It is about responsibility.
And about having your own opinions.
