PROGRAM
Vinterresa
Vinterresa (Winter Journey) is a new creation by choreographer Carl Knif for our dancer Madeleine Månsson. The starting point of the piece has been Franz Schubert's song cycle Winterreise based on Wilhelm Müller's poems.
In Vinterresa Madeleine Månsson embarks on a journey through a multi-layered landscape. In this autobiographical choreography words and motion are intertwined in an exploration of memory and its powers.
How do we remember places, persons and events? In what ways does our past live on inside us? How do past events effect our now and our future?
Blushing Gold
Blushing Gold is a new piece by choreographer Heidi Vierthaler exploring the emotional body. Every fiber of our body has the ability to express the unspoken – a tool of endless possibilities. Within a safe environment, we explore the delicate journey from vulnerability to empowerment.
