Animals of the Night
There is a theatre play.
It is acting, dance and video.
The play is called: Animals of the Night.
It is theatre.
There is acting.
There is dance.
And there are videos.
The play is imaginative.
It is like a journey to Wonderland.
Everything is a little strange.
What is it about in general?
The play tells a special story.
It is about two people.
They are traveling in another world.
The world feels like a movie.
They get to know each other.
But there is danger.
The play asks:
What is really happening?
And what is only a dream?
What is it about exactly?
A man is called Clyde.
He meets a strange woman.
The woman has a secret.
They get to know each other.
They travel together.
They run away from the police.
They have robbed a bank.
They have nice moments.
But danger is near.
At the end, Clyde goes to court.
The woman has disappeared.
Maybe she was not real.
Maybe she only existed in a dream.
No one knows.
In the play, there are also videos.
Other characters appear on the screen.
The people on stage react to them.
The play feels like a movie.
The woman dances.
