Claudette sits, waits, eats her soup and dreams of life at home. She is a grandmother full of wrinkles, stubbornness and imagination.

With juggling, puppets and visual theatre, Maleta Company and Cie Balancetoi create a wordless performance about loneliness, care and the longing for closeness. Tender, funny and recognisable across generations.

About the company

Maleta Company and Cie Balancetoi share an artistic search in which body, movement and emotion are central as a universal language. Both companies move along the boundary between circus, theatre and object manipulation.

Maleta Company explores juggling and manipulation as narrative tools. Cie Balancetoi, in turn, develops a human and visual stage language with theatre, physical expression and puppets. Claudette grew out of that meeting: a sensitive and humorous performance about old age, loneliness and connection between generations.
