Unreal imagine, phantasm, optical phenomenon of reflection at the dessert, illusion

„Mirage“ is looking into the world of imagination. Three figures coming from the concrete reflect of the moment are going through unreal as well as less unreal possible meetings. Something as a strange, fleeing joy is putting them together, their loneliness and at the same time a need better not to stay alone, their inner necessity of a closeness of others, from which they finally always run away though. In the complexity of their relationships the tragedy as well as comic reflect.
After the presentation of the „Mirage“ the authors managed to engage another dancer Marcelo Shigueyuki Omine. In many miniature stories they are telling an emotional choreography perfect in dance, full of humour and elegance, playful and puzzling at the same time … Highly stylised dance with background of crafty musical and sound collage… (General-Anzeiger Bonn, November 3, 2003)
