The playrooms
a new creation from Umi no Hikari
The playrooms – The playrooms
© Promo
The Playrooms is the new dance production by Umi no Hikari (Light of the Sea). The work explores the tension between nostalgia for a “better past” and the idea of a promised future that perhaps never truly existed, through themes of escapism, reflection, and acceptance.
Created within the context of today’s accelerated and emotionally saturated world, The Playrooms emerges from the human need to escape and reinterpret reality. The production draws direct inspiration from The Backrooms, the internet urban legend centered around liminal and unsettling spaces that evoke nostalgia, discomfort, fear and existential uncertainty.
Using this universe as a conceptual starting point, the piece explores fears tied to routine, stress, emotional disconnection, and uncertainty about the future. At the same time, it creates space for reflection, hope, and transformation.
Conceptually and aesthetically, the work is influenced by internet-born movements such as Dreamcore and Weirdcore, incorporating distorted nostalgia, liminal imagery, and dreamlike atmospheres to construct a darker and more vulnerable parallel world within the original universe of Umi no Hikari.
