Boucan is an explosive cocktail combining circus, beatbox, time travel and comedy.
The performance deals with the absurdity – and great beauty – of life, with a very free inspiration from a theater masterpiece. Live sound effects and songs with a touch from the 1990’s inscribe us in the atmosphere of this creative and crazy period of imagination and of widespread “hangover of society”…
There will be coffee, partner acrobatics, dancing, juggling, disco balls, music, aperitif and maybe even a T-rex !

Square Two is a journey of discovery into a wonderful world of codes and patterns. Tall Tales Company and visual artist Don Satijn researched for two years how the underlying codes of each other’s work relate to the rest of the world. The result is a route through a striking building, a part of a city or through nature, in which static art comes alive in hypnotic living juggling sculptures. Juggling patterns are captured in abstract paintings. Square Two is a visual performance that offers a completely new perspective on juggling, visual art and your own environment.

Step inside the abandoned house – assembled from material from more than 60 houses in North Jutland. A theatrical installation that bears witness to a life lived, explores the unnoticed detail and shows both the beauty and brutality of the abandoned. Through headphones, the audience is guided through the installation of objects, sound, words and video that contain elements of extreme beauty, heartbreaking decay, longing, mortality, power and love. We end up around the set coffee table where we reminisce together – and create new shared memories. ROD brings the forgotten to life – a tribute to what was and still is.

Gaby, Antoine and Nadine are 3 joyful senior citizens. They merrily pull up their trailer on a square, in a park or in the clearing of a wood where they present an amusing show about their generation, portraying the troublesome adventures of two residents in a retirement home.
Between carnival and street performance, our heroes long to meet new people and reconnect with their stolen intergenerational relationship. They are fantastic DJs. Their heart-warming adventures finish with rollicking moves on the dance-floor, to the sound of carefully selected vinyl singles for the public of the day.

Without those who support her, ensuring her ascent, set the lines, watch her, the tightrope artist has no power. This is not a superhuman figure walking on a tightrope. It is an association of people who, together, make it possible.
For the French company Cie Basinga, collaboration with the local residents and active participation of the audience are prerequisites for the performance to even take place.
Tatiana-Mosio Bongonga is one of the rare high wire artists in the world who performs at great heights. This performance will be accompanied by live musicians and a team of volunteers who will maintain the supports.
“Open Lines” is above all a collective experience and effort: When Tatiana Mosio-Bongonga embarks on a 200-meter long, choreographed journey at a height of 20 metres without any safety harness, it is more than 50 local volunteers from the housing area of Nøjsomhed and from the rest of Helsingør, who will stabilize the line as cavalettists (cavaletti being cross ropes held by body weight), while local musicians become part of the Basinga Band, creating a musical dialogue with the high wire artist as she moves through the air between the buildings in the area of Nøjsomhed.

Before entering the performance space, participants are given a simple set of instructions and a specific line on the floor to follow with a portable speaker. Each speaker plays one layer of the composition, thus every participant’s movement contributes to the emergence of a moving symphony of sounds. Harmonising their movement on these routes is a complex task requiring continuous non-verbal negotiation, and brings about various patterns of movement that almost resemble a dance – one that allows participants to reflect on their own behavior and social cues as well as those of the entire group.

La Extraordinaria is something difficult to define. What at first glance looks like a simple nursing home hide, behind its walls, a reality out of the ordinary. A collaborative project where very diverse people have found a place where they can live together respecting each other’s singularity. A place where being old does not mean being resigned, leaving behind who you are and much less fitting in with a pre-established image of how you should be.
