THIS SIDE UP (4+)
There are four of them. Living in a box. A box that has never been opened. Life runs smoothly in their small world. Until the box breaks and falls apart. All of a sudden, they find themselves confronted with an outside world, an audience and the gaze of others.
They are being watched for the first time. But, do they want to be seen?
What follows is a nervous game of hide and seek, of showing themselves and blending in, of being there and disappearing in the background. But, in the meantime, life must go on. But how? What to do? Will they manage to repair the box and restore their former life, or will they find a way to exist in this new reality? Will they try to stay safe within the boundaries of the usual or will they have the guts to look beyond?
