A special five minute version of this work in progress will be shown at Malmö Stadsteater TONIGHT as part of their Hipp-night! This is very exiting as it is rare for independent DANCE productions to receive invitations to perform at this beautiful and special stage.

The first public sharing of this work happens TODAY @ 3e Våningen in Gothenburg, as part of the GIBCA extended. Also on the 26th of September. For tickets and more information click this link: http://www.3vaningen.se/utsnitt.html
