    The performance includes theatre smoke and blinking lights.

What kind of expressions for the movement of imagination, mysticism and playfulness can be found in the moment of the performance?

Three performers move between contemporary, historical and futuristic myths. The work studies the relationships between individuals and communities and our relationship to the cosmos inside and outside of us.

The work is part of Dance House Helsinki’s SPARKS project. Supported by the Finnish Cultural Foundation, SPARKS is an artistic development project which will produce three premieres for both the Erkko Hall and Pannu Hall.
