​Shadowland Theatre Experience

Shadowland, described as a first-of-its-kind presentation of multi-media, shadow play and dance, tells the tale of a young girl who yearns for independence, falls asleep and enters Shadowland, and thus begins a performance with the fluid logic of a dream, the grace of an acrobatic dance, the humour of a child’s cartoon and the heart of a love story. Having toured Europe and the US to critical acclaim, the theatre production is brought to Dubai by US dance company Pilobolus, which is renowned for its innovative approach to modern dance. Shadowland features high-energy, fast-paced multimedia innovation, including multiple moving screens of different sizes and shapes, and a mind-bending merging of projected images and front-of-screen choreography that leverage darkness and light.
