With FUN! Lea Moro explores the world of amusement parks, seeking to understand how fun can be produced. In a graphic landscape waiting for its final, colourful touch, the five performers and one musician work their way from one attraction to the next. The audience dives into an immersive choreography of amusement situated between performative services and cheerful wastes of energy. The performers are both fair visitors and fair attractions: FUN! glides through the TUNNEL OF LOVE, over the ALPINE SLIP, and into the DANCEAWAY RIVER.
