Is dance a universal language?

Rita Maria Muñoz is researching this question and invites you to a special prøverommet* where you will be able to experience the movements, thoughts and silences of the performance. As a spectator you are welcomed and allowed a place to question and ponder what dance is, what it is to you, and if dance is a universal language.

Rita Maria recently returned to Bergen after finishing her bachelor in contemporary dance in Iceland. The body is a central part in her creative process – how and why it moves, but also how movements are understood through our different gazes. She is interested in making works where the audience can have an atmospheric experience and at the same time be challenged in their beliefs.

*prøverommet is BIT Teatergarasjen’s autonomous sidekick, a programme that moves between venues, galleries and other places around Bergen. this concept provides an opportunity for new voices, new material, thoughts and ideas to be tested out in an informal and dynamic alternative to the permanent institutions in Bergen. it’s existed alongside BIT Teatergarasjen’s seasonal program since 1998, always searching for the latest developments in the underground of Bergen’s art scene.
