Bunnyduet, aimed to children and youngsters of all ages, is a cheerful and

familiarization of a bunny and a boy/girl. the bunny has lost her tail and asks help
finding it. Searching for the tail the pair heads into hilarious, even absurd situations and adventures.

The dance performance draws from theatre and mimics and movement-like from contemporary dance, partnering and acrobatics.
