|
|
 |

Choreographer Alexander Ekman is conquering the international dance scene. This autumn he will create his first full length evening: Ekman’s Triptych - A Study of Entertainment. Three separate works weave through a multitude of expressions, where dance meets dialogue, wit becomes wistful and the meaningful cohorts with the meaningless. What is entertainment? Première October 20 at House of Dance, Stockholm. Tickets will be released in late May. Don't miss! Photo: Urban Jörén.
