A new Belgian production, 'Exit', choreographed by Piet Van Dycke, is being performed at Zoo Southside in Edinburgh. The show features four performers who interact with a scaffold structure designed with a white facade and several doors.

The choreography incorporates elements of farce, with performers moving in and out of the doors, creating a series of comings and goings. The production also includes increasing acrobatics and subtle costume changes.

The set, designed by Arjan Kruidhof and Arjen Schoneveld, includes a wall that transforms into a teeterboard. Bastiaan van Vuuren's score accompanies the performance, shifting from light intrigue to building tension. The current quartet of performers includes Harrison Claxton, Luuk Brantjes, Christopher McAuley, and Samuel Rhyner.

What this means for you: If you are attending the show, a side seat is recommended to appreciate the full effect.
