Pling-Klang is a physical theatre duo by Étienne Manceau and Mathieu Despoisse that turns the iconic IKEA KALLAX shelf into a mischievous stage partner. Building furniture becomes an acrobatic and comic ritual: screws are tightened and loosened, objects are juggled and bodies find precarious balance. Through precise object manipulation, deadpan humour and inventive acrobatics, the piece reveals the small catastrophes and tender compromises of couple life, combining slapstick with intimate emotion.
