WALL & PEACE
Wonderground
A wall, two characters, and living arts in the dead of night.
Wall & Peace is a nocturnal site-specific performance that follows the mysterious encounter between two men and a wall, narrated and illuminated by a woman.
Through a blend of dance, circus and martial arts, the two men rediscover not only their friendship but also contemplate their role in the world.
The production transforms the public space into an imaginative theatrical landscape, pushing the boundaries of artisanal aesthetics and physical storytelling.
Wall & Peace is a work in progress set to premiere at the Spoffin Festival in August 2024, with support for its development provided by the El Danseu festival.
In 2018, Roser Tutusaus and Tom Weksler joined forces, giving birth to the Wonderground Arts del Moviment company, based in Catalonia.
Wonderground’s works often delve into the stories ingrained in the body, exploring diverse ways to express them and tackling universal themes related to humanity and its essence. Their movement style is marked by its richness, versatility and interdisciplinary approach, as they bring their curiosity about space and ephemeral architectures to theatres and public spaces alike.
In 2020, they premiered the street performance Rise, which has toured Catalonia and Europe. Their accolades include securing the Audience Award at the 2022 Spoffin festival in Amersfoort. They have contributed various creations to European professional dance universities, while also developing the duet for the theatre piece After the Rain between 2020 and 2023, which premiered in Bulgaria.
