Bagom stjernerne

‘Bagom stjernerne / Beyond the Stars’ is based on wonder and philosophical conversations with children, and in this interactive dance and music performance we address big and small questions in life. With a basic assumption that children are able to experience and reflect on artistic experiences, the performers will be inspired by the children and they will therefore be able to recognize themselves in the performance.

The children can have influence on the scenography consisting of celestial bodies, when they prepare objects for it, and this way ‘Beyond the Stars’ gets to be a cross disciplinary work where dance, music, textile art, children and professional artists create an artistic unity.
