DESCRIPTION
A table sits alone surrounded by empty chairs. The table is dressed for the occasion, lacy white tablecloths, delicate teacups, proud teapots and flickering candlelight. But the tablecloths are stained, cold dregs of tea float in the teacups and the flowers are withered and dried. It looks like the party has finished but its only just beginning... Experience a taste of the surreal in a performance that draws upon an eclectic and bizarre mix of sourced material: slices of Alice in Wonderland, a splash of A Midsummer Night’s Dream, a lump or two of Dali’s surrealism, a pinch of Peter Pan - all brewed together with a teaspoonful or two of Monty Pythons’ Circus. Be immersed in a dreamland and a secret tea party, play a game with unexpected rules or even, as it may sometimes seem, no rules at all! http://slowartme.wix.com/slowart

TEATIME WONDER GAME is a live interactive performance involving music, dancing, story telling and gambling. It aims to detach the audience and participants from the rush of their everyday lives, leave worries about the future and regrets of the past behind and be the here and now and experience their surroundings with all their senses. We want to help people slow down, re-connect to their inner thoughts, unconstrain themselves. The performance art becomes the healing tool, helps to reset the mind, it is a detox session for overheated modern brains.
