Quantum entanglement explores interaction and belonging despite physical distance. What does social distancing do to us as human beings?

In collaboration with Danselaboratoriet and Danseteateret, Quantum Entanglement # 2 will share several stories from the pandemic, seen from different people's perspectives.

The performance is played in a room with large windows, each with its own dancers, that represent different homes and different rooms. You see people, each in their own physical and mental space. A person in isolation, in frustration, in boredom. You see a dancer with a longing for a partner. Closeness sought, duets forms, at a distance. Music is played and forms a link between the worlds.

Danselaboratoriet focuses on meetings between different people in dance. It invites differently bodied dancers to explore, improvise and choreograph dance together. The participants are both professionals and amateurs, with and without disabilities. Danseteateret is a group of enthusiastic ladies between 55 years up to the age of 90. They focus on improvisation, choreography and experimental encounters between people through dance.
