Ring

In the organizer's words:

Where is the origin of dance? In "Ring", Finnish choreographer Jenna Jalonen breaks down various dance traditions into their lowest common denominator: the circle. Together with seven dancers, she explores the power and symbolism of circular formations between ritual, club, ceremony and contemporary choreography. The circle as a collective structure is widespread worldwide: whether in traditional round dances, battle situations from street and club styles or spiritual ceremonies. In all these dances, relationships are tested - between bodies, times and worlds. Jalonen's approach to these old formations is not museum-like, but transformative: she takes up these popular dance practices, interweaves them and creates something completely new: A community moves between tradition and pop culture, constantly changing its form and whose rhythm leaps out at the audience. "Ring" is a homage to dance history and an energetic force field in the here and now - carried by a rousing soundtrack and pure physical presence. An invitation to remember the transformative, cathartic power of dance - and to experience it anew together.
