Entrapped in a magicians head. The internationally successful performance Vielfalt by Jakop Ahlbom Company returns to theatres in the Netherlands. The audience will be enthralled by its dancing duets, magical tricks and pure slapstick, as if watching a surrealist film. Defying the boundaries of fantasy, Vielfalt feeds our imagination.
When a magician lets a woman disappear during an act, she does not return. Her husband does his utmost to bring her back and even steps into the magician’s fantasy world. He ends up in a surrealist maze where illusion and reality intertwine. Every time he seems to have found her, she slips away again. The man disappears further and further into the magician’s mind.
