Loo is a non-verbal and unconventional show of theatre of objects, created for an audience between 2 and 5 years old, where it is possible to experience the proximity of the theatre and the feelings that it suggests in a special way.
Loo is a hot, dry wind from Asia that comes alive on summer afternoons. The show is a poetic exploration of the changes this wind can cause: moving the desert sand dunes, drying up wetlands and jungles, leaving ships buried in sandy oceans, unable to sail.
Set around the bow of a sunken boat in a sea of sand, the show uses evocative music, buried objects and stunning visual effects, to give its audience a first-hand experience of the destructive effect of this wind… And a chance to understand how and why the Loo blows.
‘Loo has been a brief, sensorial and exciting gift that has left us with a smile on our faces and a desire to get into a boat and play, play with all the elements until they are transformed into the purest poetry. This show is an intimate, playful and dreamlike journey that allows the whole family to enjoy the best visual theatre for children’.

‘How to bring the wind to the stage? With imagination, precision to the smallest detail and a leading actress who from the first moment captivates the audience without uttering a single word.’
