For the second time Granhøj focuses on the fusion between a live piano concert and a dance performance, attempting to create a true symbiosis between these two art genres.
In the show, 5 outstanding performers with 5 different nationalities and a wide range of ages meet on stage to deliver their interpretation of the story about Petrushka, the puppet figure, originally shaped by Fokin and Igor Stravinsky.
In a theatre within theatre setting, the characters of the show strive eagerly to achieve their goal, while dealing with their double roles as figures and performers.
