BROTHERS

BROTHERS

An eccentric dance piece about men, where dance, theatre, music and visual arts are combined. The subject of the piece circles around the multifaceted relationships between men and women, their longings, feelings, sexual frustrations and dreams in a world full of misunderstanding and misinterpretations about the sexes and their communication. However focus is set on the male mind and behaviour. Among other things explored are faith and fights, languages and love, sex and religion.
