Castle in the Clouds is a dance performance for the very young, 6 months-3 year olds. Two creatures, Sunna and Storm, wake up in a mysterious place where the weather is constantly changing. From cold and scary to sweet and sunny. After the performance the children are invited up on the stage to play, meet the creatures and explore the scenography.
Castle in the Clouds premiered in the National Theatre of Iceland in March 2012 followed by extensive touring to kindergartens and theatres, domestically and internationally.
