In Out of the blue by De Damene the audience meets two elderly women who dream about the lives they have led and the different people they have met. Perhaps they have lived a life in luxury, as peasant wives or as spectacular showgirls? Or is the whole thing just a dream about an exciting life never lived?

Out of the blue works as an introduction to the diverse world of dance and the pupils get to experience that the gymnastics hall, using simple measures, has been changed into an intimate venue. This way the pupils get to experience dance as performing arts in surroundings they are familiar with.
