HOPP is a performance about rope skipping. It dwells in the nostalgia of a childhood playtime activity while it reaches out for new meanings in old movements. Guided by complex associations emerging from simple actions the audience is drawn into a pulsating landscape, an imaginary playground where getting tired is inevitable as we seek excitement.
