In a house somewhere in the big city lives a man. He shares his home with his cat, who has a will of its own. Every day, the man collects castoffs, objects that nobody wants. He brings them into his home and gives each and every one of them a new purpose. Until one day, the man fails to return home, and the objects seem to be lost once again…

Verloren Dingen (Lost Things) deals with the way we view the world. It is a show about seeing things that others would pass by without a second thought. Three performers bring puppets and objects to life, just like the man who breathes new life into his collection of objects. Ramses Graus is once again creating a visually strong performance with lots of music and very few words, bringing together laughter and poetry.
