Are you celebrating summer in Amsterdam? 'Earth' is an outdoor performance with 4 giant figures on stilts. Accompanied by music, they appear on squares and markets in Amsterdam. This time you can admire them for free during the Sunday Market in Westergas.

How well do we treat our earth?
In Earth, the five elements Earth, Water, Fire, Air and Ether show what the purpose is: connecting! This is what the stilt walkers show through dance.
We look at them in amazement. They move around the square on stilts and are enormous. Are they angels? Or primal creatures? Do they want good or evil? During their dance they seek rapprochement with their audience and get closer and closer.
It quickly becomes clear that it is the elements. They circle a 5th human-sized figure. The 5th Element dances an enchanting inimitable dance. Take her hand and follow her to the center of the square. You shouldn't miss what happens next... will you be there?
Amsterdam on Stilts
High on their stilts, in their grand costumes, they invite the audience to get moving too. And before you know it, you're laughing and dancing together, forming a big circle of��� recognition? Friendship? Love? Pleasure? An enchanting, current and positive performance about the need to continue meeting 'the other'.
