Can reality be choreographed?
Can reality dictate the choreography?
Norrdans’ ten dancers share the stage with ten local residents, forming a unique ensemble that explores the concepts of crowds and power.
The crowd is a force in itself, capable of both support and destruction. In Crowds & Power, Martin Forsberg creates a choreographic field that stretches between the human mass and the actions that reveal the scales of power – between human connection and the dynamics of both the grand and the small.
In Crowds & Power, we experience set and costume design by David Gehrt and newly composed music by Anna-Sóley Tryggvadóttir. The work is enriched by lighting design from Mads Lindegaard. Crowds & Power is bombastic, monumental, and sentimentally intimate.
Martin Forsberg, artistic director of Norrdans, has previously choreographed works with Norrdans that explore communication and the staging of the authentic, such as Doppelgänger and Proxy.
