SUMMARY:FOUR DANCES AND A WEDDING
DESCRIPTION:Two lesbians\, both alike in dignity\n\nAcross four dances\, a courtship unfolds \nin lustful glances and rivalry of two households\nWaltzes become language of teasing and glee\nand finally the courage to go down on one knee\nThe final act - a wedding - seals the lovers’ fate\nspiralling towards an ending that might not be great \n\nThus the scene is set for the play to begin\nis it pride or is it love that will finally win?\n\nFour Dances and a Wedding is an epoque-ish musical presenting a stormy lesbian love story that balances between good intentions and poor executions. The conflicting emotions and desires of the story’s heroines create an absurd world where the community’s social codes\, etiquette\, and morals rock the boat of their budding love. The musical is a loose lesbian translation of the epic hetero love stories Pride and Prejudice and Romeo and Juliet. \n\nFour Dances and a Wedding is the second part of the Lesbian Power Duo Karlberg&amp\;Laakso’s DIY contemporary musical trilogy\, which is a lesbian exploration of the musical genre as well as an exploration and storytelling of various lesbian passions and loves. The trilogy flirts with lesbian stereotypes\, tropes and the duo’s own experiences. Stylistically\, it builds upon a subgenre of contemporary dance that brings back intense eye contact and expressive movement. \n\nLanguage: English\nDuration: 1h\nAge recommendation: 15+\nTickets: 26 € / 15 € / 8 € / PWYC starting at 2 €  \nA service fee of 1\,50 € is added to all tickets\n\nPerformances\n11.06. 18:00H PREMIERE\n15.06. 18:00H\n16.06 18:00H\n23.6. 18:00H\n24.06. 18:00H\n\nTeam and credits\nChoreography\, performance\, sound\, costume: Johanna Karlberg and Iiris Laakso\nLight and sound support: Satu Kankkonen\nPhoto: Emma Karppi\nSupported by: Kone Foundation\, Svenska Kulturfonden\n\nLesbian Power Duo is an artistic collaboration between Helsinki-based dance and performance artists Johanna Karlberg and Iiris Laakso.
