Performances

Simone de Jong Company (NL)

HERMIT

A funny and moving, wordless story about being completely alone and still finding the way home. For the 2-6 year olds and their adults

There is a square. Is it a house?
There is a sound.
Is there anyone inside the house?
Who’s in there?

HERMIT is a visual, wordless performance of a small house where the owner is not at home – but we can still hear him.


SIMONE DE JONG COMPANY (NL)

Simone de Jong Company in Amsterdam creates performing arts for families based on movement, music and imagination. Their productions are original, funny and sensitive.

The theatre itself describes that most of their performances are wordless, because for a small child the spoken word is only one of many forms of language. The Simone de Jong Company starts from the physical and aims to put images on the philosophical considerations of life at eye level with the children.
