Red Flag Walkers

This international street theatre group were established in 1991 and combine various disciplines of performing arts including dance, music and circus, with stunning visual representations. Their spectacular performances have a narrative character and are best described as magical and hypnotic. This atmosphere is supported by the representation of almost mythical characters, somewhat recognisable by their archetypal appearance and enlarged costumes. The style of play is interactive, surprising and straight: the performers on stilts move among the audience that is immersed in the world of the
performance.

The company has been invited by numerous renowned international festivals to perform as opening or final act. All of their productions have one thing in common; Visually strong street theatre without the limitation of age, language or even cultural boundaries.

Red Flag Walkers:
Dancers dressed in fiery red bear double flags. Proud and forceful they defy, high above the mass, the expectant eye of the audience. Confusion sets in, are they warriors on a war path, pacifists in search of peace? The flags, ambiguous symbols, play a central role. Revolutionary or traditionally, the intention remains unclear for now.

A throughly memsermising street theatre show, perefct for festivals, corporate events and festivals.
