Make Hay While the Sun Shines

Choreography: Stina Nyberg

“All that you touch you change. All that you change changes you. The only lasting truth is change.”Octavia E. Butler, Parable of the Sower

Choreographer Stina Nyberg has composed a work that gives space to the dance history of a cross-generational cast of dancers and merges them into new forms. Make Hay While the Sun Shines is a series of dances which maps the dancing movements of our histories. Ditching a “neither/nor” in favour of a “yes/and,” it is both a project and a dance of constant change. Stemming from a movement practice based on disharmony, a dance which might be more like life itself is created: irregular, fascinating, unsuccessful, stumbling, fast, loving and pretty unpredictable.
