GUEST: Skapelsen

Broas & Nyberg

On stage, a ceaseless mist unfolds. In the mist fleeting images from ancient civilizations wander. Endless echoes are heard; the sound of beings that are simultaneously alive, deceased and yet to be born.

Something is growing beneath the stage.

Skapelsen is born from existing creation myths and myths yet to be born. It moves inevitably through mythical creatures, unravelling the infinity of the universe. The work is a proposal of a time where perception takes centre stage, and where we can glide through the layers of history, reaching for the unimaginable. 

Skapelsen is a dance performance in the form of a scenic poem, where a new world emerges from the echoes of the one we know. The performance is an imaginary beginning composed by the artist duo Broas & Nyberg together with the working group.
