A free translation of the Flemish slang word Speelvogels, meaning playing children. A splendid word for a splendid event: children at play. And when a child plays, alone or with others, in that game reality gets a face. In MADCAP three dancers enter the stage to conquer their place in the game, to share their imagination and to confirm their friendship. Relationships are put on the test, choices are enforced, because the number 3 takes its toll. With simple objects three children build a world that offers room for imagination and friendship. By following the stream they get to know the riverbed. Simple causes have great consequences.
