Th 8.9.2022, 18:00-20:30, MDT
During the autumn of 2022 MDT will be running a Reading Circle in collaboration with ABF Stockholm.
The participants of the circle will read and discuss texts which relate thematically to some of the performances that are presented at MDT during the season. As a participant you are also given the opportunity to see four different performances free of charge. These works, created by Sweden-based as well as international dance artists, will be reflected upon and discussed within the group.
We will read texts that touch upon themes such as afropessimism, world building and speculative feminism. The performances that we will see together are Marikiscrycrycry: “He’s Dead”; Lisa Janbell: “KONTAKT”; Zoë Poluch, Hanako Hoshimi-Caines, Elisa Harkins: “Radio III / ᎦᏬᏂᏍᎩ ᏦᎢ” and BamBam Frost: “dream beam”.
The study group will be conducted in Swedish, with a fair amount of English mixed in, as many of the texts we will read are in English. The Reading Circle suits anyone who is interested in contemporary dance and choreography, or other contemporary art forms or expressions of popular culture.
