NUdans 2013

Seven of Sweden's most promising young dancers are taking over The Göteborg Opera. Three choreographers from GöteborgsOperans Danskompani have each created a work for them, on the theme of Homeland & Risk Zones.

Choreographers spring 2013: Rebecca Hytting, Moritz Ostruschnjak, Chiaki Horita.

Chiaki Horita bases her creation Territory on her personal experiences of migration: of leaving her homeland of Japan to move to another continent.

Swedish Rebecca Hytting let the emotions within the body decide the movement and creates Peter together with DJ Ori Lichtik, who was responsible for the music in the Sharon Eyal and Gai Behar work Untitled Black in Homeland? in 2012.

In Super Animal, German-born Moritz Ostruschnjak starts out from the dance student's life and dreams about dance.
