Come to Surtsey Performance Lecture at Nordic House Reykjavik, 15th of August 2019!
The Norwegian-Icelandic performance production Surtsey (2020) kicks off in Reykjavik, with an open lecture-performance by prize-winning director Jon Tombre.
Surtsey is a multidisciplinary theatre production. The piece is under development and has estimated premiere in September 2020 at Haustscena (NO). It will be a site-specific, music-based piece for two soloists and possibly local choirs of adolescent people. The story: Two young people set out in a little boat from Heimaey. An underwater volcanic eruption changes their trip and ultimately how they look at themselves and each other. The themes circling around growing up, creating identity, transformations. The final (and multidisciplinary piece) will be produced in 2020, with shows in i.e. Ålesund (NO), Oslo (NO) and Reykjavik (IS).
The lecture and workshop will be in English. Free entrance.
