Playlist 2024

The Close-Act performances are built through universal imagery and visual language.
The costumes and objects speak for themselves and the shows use universal themes and opposites.
Because of the evocative visuals, the shows can be understood all over the world.

This playlist will be more updated as summer approaches.
