A man with a cool box and a passion for everything to do with flying: he designs, tinkers, spreads his wings, burns his fingers. He opens the door to his imagination, the open sky.

With ‘Manita’, Nikolas Lestaeghe presents a touchingly beautiful, intimate solo about dealing with loss, about the gravity that sometimes pulls at you, and about your imagination in full flight.

“With ‘Manita’, Lestaeghe offers a simple but endearing tribute to his pet.” (Knack)

“So simple, so pure, so childlike and true.” (theatermaggezien.net)
