| Description |
Destruction Song (2008) is the first production Kenneth Kvarnström made with his own company after his six-year break from choreography. The starting point for the production was the black color. Black in different shades, visible in the set design, in the costumes, as well as in the music. Helena Hörstedt is on of the most talked about fashion designers with her own lable in Sweden. Jens Sethzman is a wizard of light- and set design, creating his own magic with dark light on stage. Jukka Rintamäki is a well known musician leaning towards rock and occasionally noice. Destruction Song ll is danced by five dancers (four men and one woman). The original version was a trio for two women and one man. |
