- Det mørke og det lyse treffest i punk, dans og eksplosjonar med ein velskriven tekst som på sitt beste er svært underhaldande, klok og opprørsk.

Australian Nicola Gunn is a Bergen-based artist working between contemporary performance, choreography, writing and pedagogy. Her works have been presented in venues and festivals across 19 countries, among them: Venezia Biennale di Danza, Tanz im August, Tanzquartier Wien, La Villette, Theatre Silvia Monfort, 4+4 Days in Motion Prague, Southbank Centre, Dublin Theatre Festival and others. Her works tend to complicate the relationship between herself, the material and the audience, and the slippages between the body on stage and text – whether written or spoken.

Queer

STICKY Productions (Edginton/Lothe/Olsen/Parsons) is a dance collective of gay, female dance artists based in Oslo. Their works delve into the physical and the sensitive, the playful and the peculiar. Using the open and expressive body, they investigate social themes in productions that move between the actual and the abstract. These productions aim to give their audiences the chance to get close to imagination and to absorb stories kinaesthetically.Their first work Økohelter, has toured extensively in Norway (with performances at Dansens Hus in 2022 and 2023), and was nominated for the Gulljerven and Hedda awards in the ‘best children’s production’ and ‘best dance production’ categories.&nbsp;

HERO IMAGE Daddy 18 1 Photo by James Henry

- a deeply personal, and intensely political, exploration of gay and Aboriginal identities.

Joel weaves his way through and around the audience, one moment channeling childlike innocence, the next exuding muscular gay-male bravado and moments later crashing to the floor in torment. The audience gradually learns the true story of lost innocence, colonisation and sexual assault that has led to his family and cultural dislocation.Hilarious, provocative and heartfelt, this show tickles the nerve endings of desire while prodding the cavities left by colonisation. Featuring Joel Bray’s trademark confection of conversation, dance and all-you-can-eat audience participation, Daddy is a sweet feast with a deadly aftertaste. The performance involves the use of sweets, including large amounts of powdered sugar. This is a standing performance, but a limited number of priority seats (with restricted view) are available for those who cannot stand for longer periods.

- Joel has developed a reputation as one of the most electric new figures in Australian dance who has an uncanny ability to explore his journey and unapologetically present it in a conversational manner.
