Flood

Tulva, which was very popular in the spring, returns to Kuopio! Tulva is a surging contemporary dance performance featuring professional dancers and local dance enthusiasts. The work invites us to consider what we gather around and what we let flow past us. Internationally acclaimed choreographer Janina Rajakangas has created a collaboration with Tanssiteatteri Minimi in which a group of professionals and enthusiasts pauses before the flood of images from the news and social media. Images of a world marked by uncertainty, and of good and bad news, are traced in the performers’ bodies. The performers practise the poses of the people shown in the images and form a rhythmic choreography: they dance, run and sing as the stream of images passes through their bodies again and again. “Tulva is a performance that I already know will stay with me for years.” — Amman lukuhetki blog.
