FEM[IN]ME
This performance permits the audience to witness Black Pearl’s personal journey of resilience and self-acceptance. Impulsed by the interplay of light and sound, Black Pearl navigates through different spaces. Dancing, initially fueled by joy, transitioning to the pressure to conform and produce to please others. Awakening to moments of realization and empowerment driven by the raw energy of various dance styles: hip hop, classical, contemporary, and vogue. “Anybody walking?”
FEM[IN]ME is co-produced within the Attitudes project including Norrlandsoperan (SE), Dansekapellet (DK), hip hop dance festivals HOP (ES) and Summer Dance Forever (NL), Kampnagel (DE) and choreographic center CCNRB (FR).
Attitudes is co-funded by the European Union
THE BAREFOOT DIVA
The dawn comes gently; everything seems to be cleansed of what might have happened the day before. It is with this sense of renewal that the divas stand up and take the stage. The essence of each of the five performers spreads; the divas are animated and linked by the same energy, the same duty. Their fascinating internal strength is the focus of their constant struggle. Through their collective energy, this strength manages to grow so that each of the divas finally asserts and reveals herself. The duty of these women becomes urgent. Urgent to be heard. Urgent to take the spotlight. At dawn, consciences must be awakened. It is time for this magical, hopeful morning to bring wisdom, peace and harmony.
