Noche selected to the Swedish Biennial for Performing Arts 2023

Cullberg’s Noche has been selected to this year’s Swedish Biennial for Performing Arts.

The jury's motivation:
"In Noche, choreographer Alma Söderberg and Cullberg's nine dancers set the night in motion. Out of the darkness emerges a symbiosis of movement and sound, a composite chorus where rhythms with syncopation and sudden stops provide tension and variety. The movements give birth to the music and the dancers' voices wave between whispers to song. From the collective flow solos break forth in the demarcated field of the sparing light design, reminiscent of the glow of the moon. Everything contributes to a magically captivating atmosphere that creates a desire to rock along."

Scenkonstbiennalen/ The Swedish Biennial for Performing Arts offers a selection of the greatest performances within Swedish theatre, music theatre and dance, and takes place at Dramaten in Stockholm May 30 through June 4, 2023.
