25 years in the service of choreography<\/h1>\n\n\n\n

Ume\u00e5-based choreographer Hagar Malin Hellkvist Sell\u00e9n celebrates 25 years in the service of choreography this year. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

She was born and raised in Ume\u00e5 and in the late 90s she moved away from here to train as a choreographer at the School of Dance in Stockholm. She stayed in the capital for over two decades, until she moved back here to her birthplace just over two years ago. Here she now runs the business V\u00e4sterbottens koreografiska, which works with contemporary choreography for various formats. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

During her career, she has created a large number of works, many of which have become beloved audience favorites, including Better People, Pink Promises and The Missionary. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

This autumn, she will have the world premiere of the new work Drive Hunger here at Norrlandsoperan, which is co-produced by us and Dancenet Sweden. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

On March 31, we have the opportunity to meet Hagar Malin Hellkvist Sell\u00e9n in a close conversation with Anja Arnquist, Norrlandsoperan’s artistic director of dance, about her artistry, about intuition, the new work, the V\u00e4sterbotten vocation and about why choreography is so incredibly interesting. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
