See the world with hand and heart. Feel dance by breathing and touching. Keep distance by holding and embracing. Interactive dance performance for diverse sighted children “World without Eyes” invites children audience to become active participants and together with two dancers explore the world around through movement and movement itself. 

How doeas the surrounding world looks like for a small child? Is it round and yellow or blue and square? Or maybe green and soft? Various geometric shapes and colors dancers put together like a puzzle, sometimes they turn into vegetables - carrot, tomato, cucumber, and sometimes into mushrooms, fruits and flowers.

By playing games children get to know themselves and surrounding world, explore and learn: to sit and crawl, climb and jump, grasp and drop, catch and kick, smile and frown, share and make friends, think and enjoy. The performance is exceptional for its interactive form and content. Interactivity is disclosed by dancer guided participation of baby-audience in dance actions when children under three years explore various things such as balls, ribbons, hula hoops. By playing with these objects children imitate dancer‘s movements and invent their own what leads to first dance experiences.

Twinkle, twinkle, little star, how I wonder what you are, up above the world so high, like a diamond in the sky – says the song. What if little star twinkles on the ground or inside of curious babies, discovering world and themselves. Performance is full of various shining objects which engage babies together with dancers to explore light on stage.

It is a story about how world was made, what was the first - stars, day or night, sky or earth, animals or birds? How did first people look like? We think it was like that...

Full of secrets, colored and soft meadow in which children together with the dancer are engageed to seek adventure and look for treasures, experience joy of discovery and communication, share their impressions and emotions. The form of performance-installation allows children to explore dance and environment without limitations in time needed to get involved.
