About

The Mobiles, the famous dancers - artists - shadows - statues, with a screen and the power of light and music have managed to win dozens of awards for their art around the world. In each of their performances, the lights go out and the projectors come on, transporting the audience to a "live" shadow theater that has been warmly applauded in the biggest theaters of Europe.


A key characteristic of the Mobiles is the flawless control of their bodies that take advantage of the darkness to take forms, join with precise timing and separate again to merge with objects, buildings and animals. The media and critics around the world are talking about a spectacle that is hard to fathom that all the stories unfolding before your eyes are told by human bodies. We may have mentioned the Mobiles' unique ability to move and their games with light but it would be unfair to omit the lyricism and humor that make up the stories their bodies tell on stage. In fact, this unique humor won them an award at the biggest comedy festival in the world, in Montreal "Juste pourrire".

The performance Our World
The artists of Mobiles are going to present their most popular show, Our World, at the Greek World Cultural Center. The show is set to take the audience from Hollywood to the North Pole visualizing both the sunny and dark aspects of the world we live in with a combination of movement, poetry, comedy, creativity and precision. The trio Harald Fuß, MichaelaKöhler-Schaer and Stefan Südkamp form the creative core of the colorful troupe and are also responsible for direction and choreography. A delicate bird's voice heralds the start of an exciting evening and with it begins a journey not only through the history of music and cinema, but a journey through Earth and space, reaching the destruction of the world, all intertwined with a love story. At the center is an artist, who is the central subject of the action. After all, art is not what you see, but what you make others see..

The dancers start from the music: the shadows of the body form a trombone, which becomes a trumpet, a piano and finally the whole orchestra. Music is the movement of sound to reach the soul and teach it virtue..

Starting with the shadows of the Beatles and Queen in front of us we meet the shadows of Jimi Hendrix, Janis Joplin and even Elvis Presley.

Just as musical legends are created, they dissolve again and a whole new, exciting shadow scene emerges.

A journey around the world full of fascinating images from America and Africa to the North Pole and the East to end up in the endless universe. Our World is magical, full of love and miracles but at the same time it is full of pain and anxiety for the future.. Everything in the world has a rhythm, everything dances. Follow the dance in the shadows to see our world like you've never seen it before.

Mobiles artists are waiting to tell you a story with their shadows Loving, suffering, dancing, in black, white and color.

Our imagination flies and we are its shadow on earth..
