A private dance in the middle of a public space, just for you alone. Are you ready for this? Then come into the Dance Box, a walk-in jukebox of collected dances and your personal dream machine: pick a dance and it will be performed live for you and directly before your eyes! But how much of a connection and commitment is really created in this intimate moment? Because you’re not actually completely alone: what happens inside the box can be seen from outside and will be shown online, amongst other places, live in the foyer of the theater – intimacy live and worldwide!
