THESE ASSOCIATIONS
"The crowd walks faster, breaking into a sprint or suddenly slackening and losing formation. It looks at times like a game of tig, or a football match without a ball. There is a sense of starlings mysteriously gathering or shoals of fish somehow darting in the same direction without any obvious leader. Above all, it looks atomic, especially as the participants spin away from the group to talk to the rest of us. It is like a microcosm in reverse: Brownian-motion enacted by full-size people."The Guardian
Concept and choreography: Tino SeghalPerformed during "Carte Blanche to Tino Seghal" at Palais du Tokyo in Paris in the autumn of 2017.
TRIO
The dancers enter into a game in which they continuously reinvent their identities in relation to each other. A rich stage vocabulary of dance, situations, small talk, occurrences and dreams is created by questioning what it means to be close to someone. The present is a creation made up of collaborations and endless variations of all the encounters that take place.

I SITT EGET SELSKAPIn one’s own company
An expressive, humoristic and surrealistic dance and theatre performance. On stage we meet five people trying to find their place within themselves and within the group. But the constellations keep changing, constantly putting them in tricky situations with unexpected dynamics where the off-beat seems to rule.

ZERKALO
Five dancers, 12 large mirrors and 60 aluminum pipe.The physical movement and the movement compositions meets a world of sounds, light illusions, a sculpture of pipes.
