It is a vision of flamenco dance through the eyes of young artists born in the late 1990s, fascinated by pushing the boundaries of what Spanish dance and flamenco can be\u2014always evolving and in touch with a changing and tumultuous world.  <br>Bringing tradition and innovation together creates the perfect space for asking questions and conveying a new, contemporary, and generational perspective on Spanish dance.  <br><br> <\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/norrlandsoperan.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/NO_La-Venidera_VAM9586_&#xA9;Dansa-Valencia_Jose-Jordan_Eva-Manez-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"NO La Venidera\" class=\"wp-image-19628\"\/><\/figure>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:40px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator aligncenter has-alpha-channel-opacity is-style-dots\" style=\"margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px\"\/>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-noor-blocks-group nb-group\">\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-noor-blocks-heading nb-heading nb-cursor-default nb-heading-h2 no-bottom-line content-animation\">Sophie Augot &#038; Philip Berlin \u2013 excerpt from MISS<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div id=\"no-accordion-baa8f392-3999-4921-9393-d4720b1a8294\" class=\"wp-block-norrlandsoperan-blocks-accordion no-accordion accordion accordion-flush row w-100 m-0\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-norrlandsoperan-blocks-accordion-item accordion-item\"><div class=\"no-accordion-header\"><button class=\"no-accordion-button collapsed\" type=\"button\" data-bs-toggle=\"collapse\" data-bs-target=\"#no-accordion-baa8f392-3999-4921-9393-d4720b1a8294-0\" aria-expanded=\"false\" aria-controls=\"no-accordion-baa8f392-3999-4921-9393-d4720b1a8294-0\"><span class=\"accordion-button-text\">The performance &#8220;MISS&#8221; is a physical and comedic interpretation of Anita Ekberg&#8217;s 2005 summer program on P1, in which her unique style of expression and life story are interpreted and choreographed by Sophie Augot and Philip Berlin.  <\/span><span class=\"accordion-button-icon\"><svg width=\"24\" height=\"24\" viewBox=\"0 0 32 32\" fill=\"none\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\"><path fill-rule=\"evenodd\" clip-rule=\"evenodd\" d=\"M7.99821 16C7.99821 15.7347 8.10357 15.4804 8.2911 15.2929C8.47864 15.1053 8.733 15 8.99821 15L20.5842 15L16.2902 10.708C16.1972 10.615 16.1235 10.5046 16.0732 10.3831C16.0228 10.2616 15.9969 10.1314 15.9969 9.99996C15.9969 9.86847 16.0228 9.73827 16.0732 9.61679C16.1235 9.49531 16.1972 9.38494 16.2902 9.29196C16.3832 9.19898 16.4936 9.12523 16.615 9.07491C16.7365 9.02459 16.8667 8.9987 16.9982 8.9987C17.1297 8.9987 17.2599 9.02459 17.3814 9.07491C17.5029 9.12523 17.6132 9.19898 17.7062 9.29196L23.7062 15.292C23.7993 15.3848 23.8732 15.4952 23.9236 15.6167C23.9741 15.7382 24 15.8684 24 16C24 16.1315 23.9741 16.2617 23.9236 16.3832C23.8732 16.5047 23.7993 16.6151 23.7062 16.708L17.7062 22.708C17.5184 22.8957 17.2638 23.0012 16.9982 23.0012C16.7327 23.0012 16.478 22.8957 16.2902 22.708C16.1024 22.5202 15.997 22.2655 15.997 22C15.997 21.7344 16.1024 21.4797 16.2902 21.292L20.5842 17L8.99821 17C8.733 17 8.47864 16.8946 8.2911 16.7071C8.10357 16.5195 7.99821 16.2652 7.99821 16Z\" fill=\"currentColor\"><\/path><\/svg><\/span><\/button><\/div><div id=\"no-accordion-baa8f392-3999-4921-9393-d4720b1a8294-0\" class=\"accordion-collapse position-relative collapse\" data-bs-parent=\"#no-accordion-baa8f392-3999-4921-9393-d4720b1a8294\"><div class=\"no-accordion-body\">\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-noor-blocks-paragraph nb-paragraph\">Actress and icon Anita Ekberg had a lot to say when she appeared on the radio program *Sommar i P1* in 2005. Her unique approach to the assignment captivated performing artists Philip Berlin and Sophie Augot, who have listened to the program together countless times\u2014and very carefully at that.  <br>They were so captivated by Anita\u2019s distinctive language and husky voice that it took root in both their bodies and their imaginations. This became a catalyst for embodying and choreographing Anita\u2019s enchanting soundscape. Unpredictable whims branched out through associations, and in the interplay between intense presence, physicality, and babbling, a universe took shape with its own internal logic. In the program, Anita talks about how she ended up in Hollywood, about her encounters with Frank Sinatra, Judy Garland, and other more or less famous figures. The program also explores themes such as wine, animal cruelty, olive trees, and \u201croyal Swedish jealousy.\u201d  <br>You are invited to a performance in which the cast, with great love and fearlessness, navigate Anita\u2019s life story to bring out more characters and nuances.  <br> <br><strong>About Production<\/strong> <br>By listening to the program over and over again, the artists allowed Ekberg\u2019s language and tone of voice to take root in their bodies and imaginations, resulting in a physical and comical performance that embodies the \u201cSommarprat\u201d and allows the audience to step into a new universe where reality blends with dreams and memories.  <br>We are presented with a dreamlike portrayal of the summer program, in which Anita\u2014channeled through Berlin and Augot\u2019s quirky and comical stage characters\u2014tells the story of her life: from Miss Sweden to Miss Universe and on to Hollywood, where she rubbed shoulders with celebrities like Frank Sinatra and Judy Garland. Amid the torrent of staged thoughts are reflections on olive trees, animal cruelty, \u201cthe royal Swedish jealousy,\u201d but also a longing for a \u201ccompanion.\u201d The experience is enhanced by a dynamic soundscape featuring music from Anita\u2019s films, Italian pop, and contemporary pop.  <br><em>MISS is<\/em>something as unique as a summer talk show brought to life, filled with original turns of phrase taken to their physical extreme. The performance is entertaining, absurd, moving, and unpredictable\u2014with an atmosphere reminiscent of David Lynch. We encounter episodes from Ekberg\u2019s life as her thoughts and feelings are woven into the hypnotic flow of dialogue, movement, and music. A guest performance by and featuring Sophie Augot and Philip Berlin, with two performers on stage and in the audience.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1000\" height=\"667\" src=\"https:\/\/norrlandsoperan.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/16_MISS_Press_-1-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-19592\" srcset=\"https:\/\/norrlandsoperan.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/16_MISS_Press_-1-1.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/norrlandsoperan.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/16_MISS_Press_-1-1-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/norrlandsoperan.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/16_MISS_Press_-1-1-768x512.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:39px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity is-style-dots\"\/>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-noor-blocks-group nb-group\">\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-noor-blocks-heading nb-heading nb-cursor-default nb-heading-h2 no-bottom-line content-animation\">Armin Hokmi \u2013 Bazm<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div id=\"no-accordion-946fc792-892e-434f-ab12-498124826f8d\" class=\"wp-block-norrlandsoperan-blocks-accordion no-accordion accordion accordion-flush row w-100 m-0\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-norrlandsoperan-blocks-accordion-item accordion-item\"><div class=\"no-accordion-header\"><button class=\"no-accordion-button collapsed\" type=\"button\" data-bs-toggle=\"collapse\" data-bs-target=\"#no-accordion-946fc792-892e-434f-ab12-498124826f8d-0\" aria-expanded=\"false\" aria-controls=\"no-accordion-946fc792-892e-434f-ab12-498124826f8d-0\"><span class=\"accordion-button-text\">In *Bazm*, choreographer Armin Hokmi explores what makes the body move by allowing the dance to emerge from impulses.<\/span><span class=\"accordion-button-icon\"><svg width=\"24\" height=\"24\" viewBox=\"0 0 32 32\" fill=\"none\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\"><path fill-rule=\"evenodd\" clip-rule=\"evenodd\" d=\"M7.99821 16C7.99821 15.7347 8.10357 15.4804 8.2911 15.2929C8.47864 15.1053 8.733 15 8.99821 15L20.5842 15L16.2902 10.708C16.1972 10.615 16.1235 10.5046 16.0732 10.3831C16.0228 10.2616 15.9969 10.1314 15.9969 9.99996C15.9969 9.86847 16.0228 9.73827 16.0732 9.61679C16.1235 9.49531 16.1972 9.38494 16.2902 9.29196C16.3832 9.19898 16.4936 9.12523 16.615 9.07491C16.7365 9.02459 16.8667 8.9987 16.9982 8.9987C17.1297 8.9987 17.2599 9.02459 17.3814 9.07491C17.5029 9.12523 17.6132 9.19898 17.7062 9.29196L23.7062 15.292C23.7993 15.3848 23.8732 15.4952 23.9236 15.6167C23.9741 15.7382 24 15.8684 24 16C24 16.1315 23.9741 16.2617 23.9236 16.3832C23.8732 16.5047 23.7993 16.6151 23.7062 16.708L17.7062 22.708C17.5184 22.8957 17.2638 23.0012 16.9982 23.0012C16.7327 23.0012 16.478 22.8957 16.2902 22.708C16.1024 22.5202 15.997 22.2655 15.997 22C15.997 21.7344 16.1024 21.4797 16.2902 21.292L20.5842 17L8.99821 17C8.733 17 8.47864 16.8946 8.2911 16.7071C8.10357 16.5195 7.99821 16.2652 7.99821 16Z\" fill=\"currentColor\"><\/path><\/svg><\/span><\/button><\/div><div id=\"no-accordion-946fc792-892e-434f-ab12-498124826f8d-0\" class=\"accordion-collapse position-relative collapse\" data-bs-parent=\"#no-accordion-946fc792-892e-434f-ab12-498124826f8d\"><div class=\"no-accordion-body\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-noor-blocks-paragraph nb-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"986\" height=\"657\" src=\"https:\/\/norrlandsoperan.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/6_Bazm-credits-Armin-Hokmi-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-19572\" srcset=\"https:\/\/norrlandsoperan.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/6_Bazm-credits-Armin-Hokmi-1.jpg 986w, https:\/\/norrlandsoperan.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/6_Bazm-credits-Armin-Hokmi-1-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/norrlandsoperan.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/6_Bazm-credits-Armin-Hokmi-1-768x512.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 986px) 100vw, 986px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:40px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity is-style-dots\"\/>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-noor-blocks-group nb-group\">\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-noor-blocks-heading nb-heading nb-cursor-default nb-heading-h2 no-bottom-line content-animation\">Ludvig Daae &#038;

At that time, this referred to relationships between men, which were considered superior to those between men and women. The philosopher and feminist bell hooks\u2019 definition of love serves as a counterpoint to \u201clove as a pure idea\u201d; that love is a verb, involving trust, care, devotion, respect, recognition, commitment, and open and honest communication.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-noor-blocks-paragraph nb-paragraph\">The title of the work is taken from one of the tracks on Britney Spears\u2019 album *Blackout* (2007). Around the time of the album\u2019s release, Spears suffered a public breakdown. Her drastic change in appearance and behavior subverted the image of a pop star by embodying the grotesque. That same year, Ludvig and Marcus met while studying in Brussels. Their relationship began precisely during a conversation about Spears and *Blackout*. As students of contemporary dance techniques strongly influenced by postmodernist ideas and values, they felt that the concept of a so-called \u201cneutral body\u201d was being promoted. White, slim, cisgender, normatively functional bodies had no significance beyond the form they performed. Although Marcus and Ludvig fit these descriptions\u2014and are thus limited in what they can represent and, consequently, challenge\u2014they seek to question these values and queer their dance history. Just as bell hooks serves as a counterweight to Plato\u2019s patriarchal theories, Spears\u2014as a monstrous, emotional pop icon\u2014can serve as a counterweight to expressionless, form-based postmodern dance.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-noor-blocks-paragraph nb-paragraph\"><em>Perfect Lover  <\/em>is not a work about Spears but a space for intimacy featuring phallic and yonic symbols. Featuring holes, fluids, and flesh: a shared, physical experience of love as a practice. The audience is invited to witness two erotic, lustful, and emotional characters dressed in garments that reference both ancient Greece and a modern pop diva. Their contorted, grotesque, and at other times expressionless dancing bodies engage in something that can be perceived as private. Through voice, gaze, and a caress, the audience is drawn into the lovers\u2019 world. They move among a set design consisting of towels: one shaped like a swan, one wet and heavy, and a third, stiffened by an unidentifiable liquid, standing upright on the floor. The towels speak to homoeroticism and spaces with sexual undertones that are important to male, queer history. Marcus and Ludvig\u2019s unique friendship can exist in erotic situations without the nature of their relationship changing. This is something they want to portray in  <em>Perfect Lover<\/em>: sex in the room, not in the relationship. Using in-ear headphones, the two performers listen to \u201cBlackout,\u201d which serves as a private dramatic compass and a source of emotions and connection. The audience experiences the work through a different soundscape. The two soundscapes frame the work as a play on the private and the public. At times, the two worlds intertwine and overlap.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-noor-blocks-paragraph nb-paragraph\"><strong>Ludvig Daae<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-noor-blocks-paragraph nb-paragraph\">I have been creating my own performances since 2011, as well as works for Cullberg, the Royal Swedish Ballet School, KHiO, and Norrdans. In addition to *Perfect Lover*, I\u2019m currently working on two projects: *The Meaning of Life*, an interactive trailer park I\u2019m creating in collaboration with Tove Berglund, and *Attempting Alchemy* for Sk\u00e5nes Dansteater. I have an ongoing collaboration with film director Joanna Nordahl. Together, we\u2019ve created  <em>MM<\/em>,  <em>HYPERFRUIT<\/em>  and  <em>The Viral Dance  <\/em>all of whom have toured with Dansn\u00e4t Sverige and Dansn\u00e4t Norge. My performances have been presented in 14 countries at venues such as Den Norske Opera (NO), Sophiensaele (DE), The Place (UK), Vooruit (BE), Gessnerallee (CH), Moderna Museet (SE), Biennale de danse de Val du Marne (FR), MDT (SE), Brut (AT), GUIdance (PT), Dansens Hus (SE), and Zodiak (FI).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-noor-blocks-paragraph nb-paragraph\">My goal is to create dance that challenges norms of masculinity and highlights \u201cradical softness\u201d as an alternative. In a society that rewards toughness, I find strength in softness by allowing emotions in the studio, trusting and leaning on others, and letting this approach inform my artistic expression. Softness as a working method and artistic expression stands in contrast to today\u2019s neoliberal notions of individualism and autonomy.<br>By staging a universe with its own rules, logic, and interpersonal relationships, my performances offer alternatives to the world outside the theater. Taking \u201cwhat if\u201d as a starting point (what if ballet looked like disco (<em>Dance To Dance To<\/em>), what if folk dance were created today (<em>We can do whatever you want<\/em>)), and through drastic, rapid dramatic shifts, \u201cqueers\u201d time. This challenges the audience\u2019s perception and understanding of the play\u2019s future development. The goal is for them to surrender to the feeling of the \u201chere and now.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-noor-blocks-paragraph nb-paragraph\"><strong>Marcus Baldemar<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-noor-blocks-paragraph nb-paragraph\">My work seeks to convey a non-hierarchical relationship between the emotional, the physical, and the intellectual. A recurring interest of mine is finding and\/or creating connections between a poetic\/political body and a poetic\/political language. This is an open, ever-evolving question that guides me in my work. The writer Leslie Feinberg once said that \u201cgender is the poetry we make of the language we are taught.\u201d In my work, I also see movement and the body as the poetry we create from the language we learn. I often work with text, but ultimately, the body is the primary communicator.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-noor-blocks-paragraph nb-paragraph\">I think it\u2019s important to \u201csee it from the inside\u201d as opposed to \u201cjust looking at it.\u201d I believe that the stories being told concern those who represent them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-noor-blocks-paragraph nb-paragraph\">My starting point is often queer history and storytelling, as well as the ambition to queer history and storytelling. In my solo  <em>GALDR<\/em>  (2019) I explored Norse mythology from a queer perspective and danced\/told an alternative story based on the Norse god Odin. With  <em>Polari: Speaking, Sex<\/em>  (2021) I was inspired by a secret language spoken among gay men in England from the early 1900s through the mid-1960s. Together with my colleagues, we explored the idea of a secret form of communication that made it possible to safely express and share queer joy, pleasure, and intimacy in public. In  <em>Finally Fantastic  <\/em>(2022) depicts a sense of togetherness that extends even into death. It explores how dying coexists with the imaginative, joyful, and intimate. The work can be seen as a meeting place and a shared burial ground where a group of people from different generations live, die, and are together. As in previous works, I took history as my starting point to create a work that speaks to the present. We die the death we wish to die\u2014together!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-noor-blocks-paragraph nb-paragraph\"><em>Marcus collaborates regularly with MDT in Stockholm and has presented his works throughout Sweden.

Her dancing has been shaped by her studies in ballet at the Royal Swedish Ballet School and in the Isadora Duncan technique under the guidance of Kathleen Quinlan Zetterberg. A number of close and long-term collaborations in Sweden with fellow dancers and choreographers have been important to her artistic development. These include Bj\u00f6rn S\u00e4fsten, Linda Blomqvist, and Philip Berlin, as well as Anja Arnquist, with whom she has danced, conversed, written, and choreographed for 15 years. For more than a decade, she was affiliated with Ccap and the Golden Lion-winning choreographer Cristina Caprioli.
