FASE is a warm-hearted performance by three dancer-acrobats, inviting the audience to Culture Centre Valve to watch the performance up close.
People struggle to understand the world. From whatever perspective we look at life, we must recognise that it is a constant process of change.
To be part of this process, we need only breathe. Our body is a wonderful ecosystem that lives in society and is itself part of the world. How do we exist together? What is inclusion? The artists of FASE gently include all spectators in a shared performance experience.
The enchanting acrobatic duo Marta & Kim will also be part of the European Capital of Culture programme in the co-production Faravid’s Land by Flow Productions and Oulu Theatre. In FASE they will be joined by Vincent Kollar.
The performance has been curated by Flow Productions for the Oulu2026 opening festival.
The performance is open to 60 spectators at a time on a first-come, first-served basis.
At the beginning of the performance, instructions are given to the audience in Finnish and English.
Free admission.
