Relaxed Performance: Aniara

Relaxed performance is for anyone who would benefit from a more relaxed theatre environment. Welcoming all but especially persons with disabilities, and anyone new to visiting the theatre.

Aniara is a performance that mixes dance and theatre. It is based on the book of the same name by Swedish author Harry Martinson.

In Aniara, the Earth is called Doris and it is being destroyed by the way people live their lives. Those who can now flee the planet Doris. Aniara is the name of one of the spaceships travelling back and forth from Doris to the refugees' new home planet, Tundrakloten.

During one of these trips, something unexpected happens. Aniara collides with a smaller planet and starts to drift. What happens to the passengers and staff on Aniara? What do they feel? How do they try to save themselves? What do they wish for most of all?

About Relaxed performance
'Relaxed performance' is a concept that suits anyone who prefers or needs a more flexible and relaxed performance experience.

It specifically welcomes disabled persons, but also welcomes anyone who is new or unused to being at the theatre or uncomfortable in a regular performance setting. You might have small babies or need to be able to move around or exit during the performance or exit frequently.

At a 'Relaxed Performance' there is an generous and relaxed attitude towards audience noise and movement in the auditorium. You are welcome to move around, dance, be vocal or just watch the performance.

The performance's audio levels are softer to create a comfortable atmosphere.

"Relaxed performance is so ingenious in its simplicity! For us it's nice that it's explicitly stated that you can talk/sing, that's the most important thing. And it's always nice not to be the only family with disabilities in the audience."

"The very inviting and accepting atmosphere. My kid could see the dancers beforehand. So good because of fear of faces with make-up ... High class performance and our little flea now says she is going to be a dancer."

For me, Aniara is a story about how we humans are bad at understanding our own situation. How we find it difficult to look critically at what we do.
