The drinks are poured. The table is set. But there's one chair too many.
Two people, a small table, three chairs — and one empty seat no one sits in. Who's coming? When? They don't know themselves. And it's in that waiting that something beautiful happens.
Cie Balltazar presents a new street theatre show: an ode to encounter, to boredom turning into hope, to humour as the only remedy. They juggle with moments, play with space and fill the air with the sounds of an accordion.
Funny. Innocent. Genuinely moving.
Pull up a chair, raise your glass and let yourself be surprised — because the most beautiful encounters are always the ones you never saw coming.
