AVAILABLE PERFORMANCES 2019-2020

Korp, korp (2014)

Enveloped by a world of sound, texture and movement. A tactile landscape. Nature.

AN INTERACTIVE INSTALLATION PERFORMANCE FOR CHILDREN
6 months – 3 years
A door opens into an undiscovered world, and together with the children, the two birds discover an unknown territory. They are two peculiar creatures, identical, like twins. Maybe human, maybe birds, maybe both. It is through their curious eyes we see this world unfold, flying through four seasons.

There are no seats, and the audience is free to walk around the room, sit wherever they want, touch, and make their own discoveries.

Dance artists Annika Ostwald and Ida Uvaas invite the youngest children to actively explore a tactile, abstract universe created by scenographer and sculptor Carl Nilssen-Love, with a vivid sound-design by composer Jens L. Thomsen.

I Vesterled (2011)

A trapped lighthouse keeper, two lost fisher women, a living secret on the bottom of the ocean. They have all forgotten, but when a group of children visits, their memory returns.

An interactive adventure for children the age of 8-13 yrs old.
“I Vesterled” has played more than 100 performances since its premiere.
