ABOUT

What does the moral compass look like for every human? An event can be interpreted in many different ways depending on who sees it. In this Nordic performance “The Moral Compass” we will dive into four different pieces "StrangerS", "Immigrants", "Roots" & "Classes" with unique storytelling based on the choreographers' own stories.

Through the Nordic performance "The Moral Compass" you will experience four different pieces "StrangerS", "Immigrants", "Roots" & "Classes" with the choreographers Julian "Joujou" Namroud from Sweden, Aaliyah Jakobsson from Norway and Marie Kaae from Denmark. The choreographers are creative artists who work in the performing arts with various dance expressions and movements such as Hip hop & House dance.

STRANGERS

ABOUT

"StrangerS" are we strangers? Someone you do not know, a strange meeting that can feel uncomfortable. Every first meeting between people starts with someone being a stranger. How do we treat someone you do not know? Are we curious? Uncomfortable? Save? Careful? Do we influence with body language and eye contact? What method of communication do we use? In every relationship, whether it is family, friends, cohabitants, partners or colleagues, there is a period when you are a stranger to each other. When is it? Is it just the beginning? Can you be a stranger later in life in these relationships as well? How long are we strangers?

The performance “Strangers” explores the different stages that take place between two strangers when they first meet. The essential center of "StrangerS" is a meeting place where the interaction with the unknown and the pulse that arises in the present is what gives the movements dynamism, communication and identity.
