It has been a nice collaboration with Valtteri Raekallio the director and Aino Koski the scenographer. We have created a space where dancers are disappearing to a mist just to being pulled back due to the bright light of life. Valtteri had an ambitious idea about a bright light from outside that´s travelling around the building. This idea is known from the ancient Greek theatre plays performed during the sunset. Instead of the sun we have a full control of the led fixtures travelling in a trolley... like a movie style. We actually had to build a custom trolley to make it move smoothly on an asphalt, slalom a containers, downhill, manpower and all. Aino painted the windows with sour milk, a good old smelly method as well. Then we just add some mist and voilà: we have a hazy ambient feeling. This is working perfectly with the glorious dancers. Oneiron is one to feel! We will have a premiere 18th of January 2018, really next Thursday. The premiere is sold out and the rest of the performances are selling fast!!
