SHOWBOX: LAVASKOGEN - Ingri Fiksdal

SHOWBOX: LAVASKOGEN was shown on 02.12.22 at 09:30 and 11:30, on 03.12.22 at 12:00

Mysterious creatures grow out of the floor. They have crooked backs, tentacles and beaks. They crawl and crawl and spin and shimmy.
Are they from another planet?

Lavaskogen is a sensuous performance in which three dancers move in a pile of colorful textiles. The audience sits on four sides of the stage and is close to the action. The dancers take the form of different beings and move both their own bodies and the textile scenography in ways that create associations with several different landscapes and environments.

In Lavaskogen, the focus is on giving children a sensory experience that can stimulate their desire to explore their own movement. The thematic backdrop for the performance is the climate challenges of our time and how they affect the landscapes we live in.

The show is suitable for children aged 6 and up.

The stage design elements and costumes in Lavaskogen were originally created by Fredrik Floen for the performance Spectral in 2020. In Lavaskogen, they are reassembled and reused in a new way.

The performance is part of Showbox, a performing arts festival with a focus on young audiences. From November 29 to December 3, we will be staging performances on stages all over Oslo. Welcome! www.showbox.no
