Les Funambules Intérieurs is a research project where four performers
live their own lives. They are constantly busy with keeping the balance between
their environment, their actions and interactions, and their feelings. They are
balancing between inner and outside world, trying to get a hold on their lives.
The music is performed by the three dancer and one musician. They have at their
disposal a violin, a saw, an Indian keyboard instrument, and all types of recorders.
During the working period, old french and german songs where used as a source of
inspiration, as well as exert from old filmmusicals.
The project takes place on the attic of the Rijkshemelvaartdienst which is
situated by the Nieuwe Meer in Amsterdam. It is an inspiring space due to
special the special light it receives and the peculiar atmosphere is irradiates.
Andra Perrin experience it as a challenge to find out how a specific environment
influences the working process as well as the final outcome.
