Hanging Possibilities is trying to answer the question which attitude adopts a man who is placed in an unusual context and can he easily find the appropriate resources to face up to things and to adjust himself to the situation. The three dancers are immersed in a theatrical space in which the parts of the furniture, which usually stand on the floor, are now suspended from the ceiling. Will the man easily learn to face the new situation and accept it? Or, will he/she, on the contrary. Destabilised by the unusual situation, make use of all possible strategies in order to find his role and his place, and take control of the situation? With this "upside-down" situation, Hanging Possibilities is trying to show the fragility of the system based on rules, norms and learnt behaviour. as well as the vulnerability of the individual robbed of his/her points of support.
