A chance meeting in a chaotic world of constant change. A couple unites in an attempt to measure, map out and define their environment and each other. Measuring has become an integral part of our existence. Do we still measure to improve our lives, or have the roles changed – do we now live only to measure more effectively?
Full Measures is a trio for puppet artist, dancer and a measuring stick. It is a visual and proportionally ambitious account on the obsession of measuring. The internationally acclaimed Turku based ensemble Falke-Lindgren-Nybom-Forsman unite their forces with the Tel Aviv based director Idit Herman. By using unconventional techniques, the creators are once again expanding the boundaries and possibilities of object theatre.
