Kreutzwald meets Dance

A dance performance for the audience over the age of 16.
If you bravely dig into folk dirt, a bit of shit will likely adhere.
Folklore meets 2012.

Composer: Liisa Hirsch
Director - Choreographer: Jaan Ulst

Performances:



What is a fable? Your favourite characters all meet in a new story? Does this story have a moral, then again does our westernized society even need a moral anymore? Do we need supplementary benefits to hold on to the "fabled"?

Kreutzwald meets Dance talks about the perception of the world surrounding us.

The versions of stories through centuries I mould into the language of contemporary dance.

The core of the dance performance is to combine characters from Estonian fables into a world of fairy-tales that reaches out to the child in us. The characters weave into each other and change. The border between the reality and phantasy fades away and we arrive to the playground of the modern man who is constantly faced with the choice of information, sides, people, animals, morals and realities.

Premiere on May 9, 2012 at the Harbour Theatre.
