Sign Language Interpreted in Norwegian
A sign language interpreter interprets and conveys information typically received through the sense of hearing. Some preparation is required, and it’s common for the interpreter to attend rehearsals to get an understanding of the performance and what needs to be interpreted. The sign language interpreter usually stands on the periphery of the stage with lighting to be clearly visible to audience members using the service.
What is DansiT-salong?
In autumn 2023, DansiT started the DansiT salon concept, which consists of conversations and interdisciplinary meetings with and between artists, followed by a time and space to dance together. In the salon, we dive into the artists’ strong commitments to specific interests, themes or issues. The salons are a bit like a delicious spice in the season, and we look forward to chatting and dancing with all of you people who occasionally want a professional, versatile and sociable top-up through the season.
Bodily climate crisis
The choreographer and dancer Geir Hytten has made performances about ecological grief and community. He is engaging with the idea of environmental commitment inside the four walls of the performing arts through aesthetics, and asks himself: How can the body be a place and a measurement for aesthetic reflections in the face of today’s climate challenges? How can the body itself produce knowledge and be a place for debate?
We have invited Geir to hold a salon on bodily environmental commitment, and how it can be developed and unfolded practically, politically and personally.
