Step into a world full of unexpected twists, self-invented rules and illogical fairy tales.
Open any fairy tale book at random and the world is presented to you in good and evil, savior and victim, trousers and dress. One dreams of marriage and babies, the other of fighting and adventure. The girl is beautiful and calm, the boy bold and wild. Maas theater and dance transforms a dull play corner into a safe space for dreams, adventures and fantasy.
What begins as an innocent game of house, tree, animal, grows into an explosion of ideas in which everything you thought you were sure about is turned upside down. And vice versa. Because there is a whole world to discover between him and her. House Tree Animal is hopeful, visual music theater full of original ideas, humor and lovely moments. The five performers build a world where the rules are not followed, but questioned. And that is precisely where freedom begins. Step into a world full of unexpected twists, self-invented rules and illogical fairy tales.

Stories are just troublesome
They're coercive, you know
I don't want anything to do with them
Stories
I'm more into experiences
Look, experiences you experience
But stories
You make those
And before you know it you're trapped in them
And you never get out again
