´We avoid the reality to get lost in our unfulfilled dreams, to escape the ground heading nowhere.'

4 performers explore their disconnected body in an attempt to drift away. Their feet forever lost the grip. The floor is floating away making it impossible to chase their attempts of reaching the intangible.

”Head in the Clouds” is a physical contemplations on the state of confusion and delusion. In their first co creation Simon and Alesya are working with students from the Fontys dance academy. Both makers coming from an urban dance background, they developed an unique movement language in their dance as well as in their stage creations. Deconstructed elements from house dance and breaking became unidentifiable and fused into an idiosyncratic language.
