RITUAL March 10 th to 31 th 2012

 

A visuel journey inspired by the Inuit culture, urban breakdance battles, arctic nature and global warming.

Ritual is a raw and humoristic dance performance about the Inuit culture and the urban breakdance environment, where dance, music and light are fused into a hybrid dealing with the basic forces of humanity.

The choreographer Lene Boel has created a unique performance where she juxtaposes Inuit culture and its relation to the magic and the animated spiritual values with the raw and urban hip hop and breakdance culture.

RITUAL will perform at the Nationalmuseum, Frederiksholms Kanal 12, 1220 Copenhagen. Tickets: www.teaterbilletter.dk or +45 70 20 20 96
