18 July 2026, 11:00 | Polski Teatr Tańca, Small Studio | duration: approx. 60 min.

"Layette" is a performance for families with infants that examines the everyday reality of caring for the youngest children. The choreographer and a cast of six dancers of varying ages transform repetitive actions — feeding, changing, rocking, carrying — into a choreography of closeness filled with rhythm and care.

The performance draws hidden meanings from these everyday actions, presenting them as a ritual that builds relationships and community. "Layette" explores the movement of care as a shared and culture-building experience — a collection of gestures passed down and evolving from generation to generation.
