Icarus dares to do everything: he runs, jumps, and flies against the rules. Icarus is bursting with energy and adventure. A sixteen-voice choir takes you along as friends, foes, and unexpected helpers, while Icarus sets out to make his dreams come true. For children from 8 years old and their parents who love big stories, live music, and imagination. Dare to jump, run, laugh, and dream, because this is a performance that completely immerses you in Icarus’ world.
With thanks to the Cultuurfonds, and thanks in part to the Mikosara Fonds, the Pette-Van Greuningen Fonds, the Fonds Monnier Goudzwaard and the Daendels-Mulder Fonds, the family performance Icarus was given the chance to spread its wings.
