We Failed To Hold This Reality In Mind

Hooman Sharifi, who moved from Iran to Norway when he was fourteen, established the in 2000to create direct and unpretentious performances that are also controversial and politically charged. In We Failed To Hold This Reality In Mind, Sharifi relates his experience of dislocation and identity in an unconventional, nonnarrative way. Combining classical Iranian music with spoken text and dancing, Sharifi is both confrontational and compelling as he explores memory, identity, misunderstanding, politics, boredom and incomprehension.

Un-Do-Three

The Norwegian performance company Baktruppen has been an integral part of the European performance scene over the last 15 years. Un-Do-Three is a clever, humorous movement performance that playfully subverts conventional notions of modern dance. The seven performers- middle-aged and in tights – frankly imitate the codes of modern dance and gymnastics without worrying about their physical limitations. Their work has been called “Absolutely childish, absolutely not simple and rather a little ingenious.” (Dagens Nyheter 02.05.04)
