Obake44

Two dancers in an apartment

Audience // from 8 years old on

Duration // 30 mins

This enigmatic duo expresses the absence and the memory of places.

Obake44 is about the absence of people who haunt us or haunt the places in which we live. It also deals with the strange impression of feeling a presence.

Places inhabit us more than we inhabit them.

A character enters and exits an apartment, sharing with the audience her intimacy, her repetitive and familiar gestures, her music, the noises she hears, the sounds she hears, and her whole universe. Another character appears and disappears, leaving little or no trace, passing and passing again. Doubt invades us, blurring our impressions and our idea of reality. Who is presence and who is flesh?
