2015

Choreography and dance Anna Venäläinen, Mirva Keski-Vähälä

Set and costume design Reija Stenius
Supported by Taiteen edistämiskeskus, Itä-Suomen tanssin aluekeskus, Helsingin kulttuurikeskus
Performance premiered in June 2015 in Joensuu, Kuopio & Helsinki.

In this absurd and touching contemporary dance piece, elements of dance theatre, butoh and capoeira get mixed into a blend of alienating situations and intimate expressions. Music was played live on stage with loopers, kantele and drum machines.
