In Hunters of Happiness by Teater NOR the audience meets two persons living in a laundry. They live to clean and aim for as clean surroundings as possible. Along the way strange shadows and images are created on the walls. Our friends explore them and reflect over the shadows and the meaning and content of the images. Through experience their image of the world grows.
Hunters of Happiness takes use of three video projectors colouring the laundry, and let images be created in different locations in the room. The performers play accordion and bass between madcap gags and philosophic discussions.
