New Religion 2 Marthe Thu

New Religion is a science fiction dance production in which artificial intelligence achieves a god-like authority over humans. Five dancers move around in a five-metre high labyrinth which continuously changes shape and dictates how much room their bodies have to move in. This is a chilling, dystopian production which pits the organic and the artificial against each other, where the dividing line between reality and fiction becomes unclear.

The labyrinth - or the stage design - is the Nevel installation by the Tromsø-based Belgian artist Lawrence Malstaf. After the production, the audience is invited to explore the installation on the stage themselves.
