This show forsees the use of park-benches. It is an itinerant performance where the public can find the time to stop and observe what is happening around them: a tale, a story, an act without words, a song, the melody of an instrument.
The bench as a place of rest, sometimes of solitude, reflection, or of play.
The search for a moment when two people can communicate or simply listen in a different way.
“Dance of the benches” is part of the attempt to delve deeper into the realms of para-theatrical communication: those simple moments when theatricality adheres to life.
