About the performance

ways of being, still explores how contemporary communication moves between the physical and the digital, between presence and distance. In an age when our perception is shaped by rapid changes and a continuous stream of information, this production creates a space in which we are directly confronted with this fragmented reality as a theatrical tool.

Using projected images and physical presence, Ole Kristian Tangen and the dancers take a closer look at how intimacy, vulnerability, playfulness and energetic physicality can be seen from different perspectives.
