Weather Stories



performance photographs by Dimitris Sotiropoulos



based on the book Fairytale with Colours by Alexis Kyritsopoulos

What would we do if we woke up one day and all the colours were gone?

When the rainbow decides to leave this world, eight musicians and dancers set off on a treasure hunt to find the rainbow and ask it to return. They are talking, singing, dancing, while making their way through an adventure that will lead them into the unknown. Along the way, they will walk through images, test their wits against magnitudes and scales, acquaint themselves with shapes and the shapeless, keep their balance on some occasions and fall flat on their faces on others.

Default company presents a fairytale full of sounds, images, and wonderful worlds. Weather Stories is a choreographed idea created for children wanting to awaken their senses.

And, sometimes believing in many impossible things, they lived happily ever after.
