Two performers play with simple white balloons in all sorts of sizes and configurations to see what images they could make. They find that balloons can be many things. Through their exploration and play, they learn how to get along, how to make meaning together and how to discover whole worlds of possibility together and give rise to a rich variety of composition, beauty, laughter, wonder, joy and story. The show represents the way children play – the way they can imagine and invent so creatively with so little. We live in a cluttered world of complexity, sophistication and gadgetry yet the cardboard box or the simple balloon are still the most loved and utilized objects in children's play – perhaps because they are elemental.
