Performing Arts / Tanum –

Marie Brassard has brought two performances to previous Gothenburg festivals: Jimmy in 2002 and The Darkness in 2004. Highly praised by the critics, both shows were deemed unforgettable by festival audiences. Brassard is a director and actor, active in Montreal in film and on stage. Her work is characterized by the exploration of the human voice and the creation of dream-like worlds and twisted identities. This year we’ve invited Marie Brassard and her team to a regional residency in TanumDuring 10 days she will be working with the production of Violences (temporary title) a new piece to be premiered during 2019.

Choreographer Dam van Huynh works in London with his troupe Van Huynh Company. A unique talent, he often uses everyday situations as points of departure, exploring, repeating and reworking the recognizable into suggestive movement languages. Van Huynh is also the artistic director of the cultural center Centre 151 in Hackney, London, a cultural headquarters for immigrants from Laos, Vietnam and Cambodia. The festival, in collaboration with 3:e Våningen, has invited Van Huynh to work in residence in Gothenburg with his new production Dep.
