Two dance companies share the stage in Korea Connection.
In the triple-bill Korea Connection Skånes Dansteater is joined by Korea National Contemporary Dance Company (KNCDC) from Seoul, inviting you to a multifaceted experience. A unique dance exchange celebrating 60 years of diplomatic relations between Sweden and South Korea.
“Precision and fluidity” about Immixture, Danser Canal Historique
Korea Connection’s three works resonate tradition and the contemporary. Balancing between calm contemplation and a longing for cross-border discovery.
Experience Korea's beauty in the all-Korean work Immixture by KNCDC's artistic director Ahn Sungsoo and see their dancers express people’s endless search for contact in The longest distance between two points by Sweden-based choreographer Fernando Melo. Follow the traces of a person in the carbon blackness of the Korean choreographer Hyerim Jang's new work Burnt offering for seven of Skånes Dansteater’s dancers.
