Neényi

What captures your attention here and now, and what engages the attention of other children and adults in the audience? Welcome to a shared space where everybody is equal, and both creators and spectators at the same time, children and adults alike. 

What captures your attention here and now, and what engages the attention of other children and adults in the audience? Welcome to a shared space where everybody is equal, being both creators and spectators at the same time, children and adults alike. Neényi is not just about the act of creation shared between the audience and the artists. Above all, it conveys the hope of reviving the social value of caring for each other across generations. Neényi is about being together, kindness, compassion, social justice, collaboration and rest. The performance is an attempt to reconnect the world of families with the world of childfree people, the world of the little ones with the world of adults and, ideally, the world of women with the world of men. Mutual understanding and awareness require our full presence.

Audience: adult, children 1-3
