Peeping Tom is an award-winning Belgian dance theatre company which is bringing its production Diptych to the Auckland Arts Festival this weekend.

It involves two set pieces, The Missing Door and The Lost Room, which both feature the company's signature hyper-realism and unsettling scenes. The production is recommended for audiences over the age of 16.

Peeping Tom was co-founded by Gabriela Carrizo and Franck Chartier, who have worked together for more than 20 years and who share a daughter together.

Franck joins Kathryn to explain the psychological elements of this production and the extraordinary things his dancers do.
