"Wrinkles" & "Essendo"

Double bill evening with:

Wrinkles is a modern dance theater performance based on our personal relationship with Alzheimer's. The performance is a memory of two elderly people who goes through the ups and downs in life individually and together. Wrinkles is about friendship, trust and personal relations. It revolves around the last thoughts of a person with Alzheimer's.

Choreographer and dancer: Mikkel Alexander Tøttrup
Co-choreographer: Anna Øhrberg Nielsen
Dancer: Elena Praastrup Nielsen

Essendo (in Italian being, the gerund of the verb to be) is a duet where the performers meet in a continuous dialogue.
The piece tries to show honesty towards the self in a journey where vulnerability is embraced, and not refrained from. If we forego self-judgment and strip ourselves from our ideas of the future, can we allow a moment to rise and fall to its own accord and simply be?

Concept and dancer: Giorgia Reitani
Live music and voice: Abraham Rademacher


Both performances are aimed for young people and adults from the age of 14.
Each performance has a duration of 20 min.
