We are excited to support Maria Nurmela<\/strong>, Ville Oinonen<\/strong> and Erno Sepp\u00e4l\u00e4<\/strong> for the performance The Days<\/em> at TROIS C-L – Maison pour la danse<\/a>, Luxembourg’s leading organisation for contemporary dance.<\/p>\n

The Days <\/em>features two performers, Maria Nurmela and Ville Oinonen, in a sensitive exploration of connection, cohabitation, and the ongoing negotiation between two individuals. Through a movement-based choreography that is re-created with every performance, the piece questions our human relationships, our desire for connection, and the balances of power involved. On stage, the two professional dancers are joined by two participants aged 55 and over offering a human and intergenerational dimension. Deeply poetic and accessible, The Days<\/em>\u00a0reminds us that contemporary dance belongs to everyone, at every age.<\/p>\n

The Days Project<\/em> started 2017 on the initiative of Maria Nurmela and Ville Oinonen, who as Finnish freelance dance artists invited English choreographer and designer, Theo Clinkard<\/strong> to collaborate and create a work they could perform together.<\/p>\n

The Days shows that contemporary dance and performance belong to every body and every age.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
