Young Choreography in Barents


Youth and strength. Beautiful and stylish. Brave and raw. The future's choreographers give a report on dance today.

Dance is one of the art forms where collaborations are made across boarders all over the world. This year we are lucky to present four young choreographers from Russia, Sweden, Finland and Norway. Each of the four countries with their own dancers and own choreography, something that will create a night filled with variation and experiences.

From Norway we meet choreographer Ingunn Bekkevoll Tarebø-Myhre from Bodø, who through collaboration with Stellaris DanceTheatre and North-Norwegian regional Dance stage in Hammerfest has produced Time for trouble/green grass. A duet where intimacy are followed by the opposites of evergreens and electronical music. Finland presents the choreography Letter to the past by and with Mirva Mäkinen and Andrius Katinas, who explores how experiences and memories from the past lives in the present.

From Sweden we meet choreographer Patrik Häggström and his duet Gap. Two dancers try to save themselves by dancing away their frustrations, which originate from their ideas of what reality is and how it should be.

Choreographer Julia Britvina from Russia showcases two choreographies, the trio Angel-A and the solo Dancer by Dega, inspired by Degas painting and danced by the choreographer herself.
