Eight characters are lost in Leicester, each carrying their own suitcase.
Naïve and curious, their emotions are barely contained, they know nothing about our norms, our town and our way of life.
The game the characters play is so subtle, it could be mistaken for reality. Opening a space for dialogue, the spectator becomes an active part of the exchange and the experimentation.
The performance eventually turns into a mirror – a mirror of our behaviour towards the Other, the Foreign, the Different. Shall we build our future with the Kamchàtka members or should we reject them?
Kamchàtka is an improvisation show that crosses the borders between theatre, game and life itself.
