Gorkij Park 2 Gunilla Heilborn
Gorkij Park 2 is a completely independent sequel to the 80’s thriller Gorky Park, a Hollywood story with the KGB in fur hats, filmed in Helsinki due to the cold war that was going on at the time. This show takes its starting point in the film and deals with forgotten utopias, social realism and a curiosity about what really happened at Fjodors’ party. Had some guests actually glitter around the eyes?

Marmalade Claire Parsons Co.
What is marmelade? Is it cherry, pear, figs, mint flavor, upside down, together or inside out? A delicious, sensory performance about meeting, mixing and blending. Mira and Viktor taste and feel in poetic movements and circus actions in an exquisite and visual experience together with the audience. Marmelade looks at the world through body, eye, feeling and taste in a room with fluffy skirts, soft circus and Fellini music.
Marmelade is choreographer Claire Parsons’ first dance production for young children from 2 – 6 years.
20-21 October, Haag, The Nederlands
24-25 October, New York, USA

Blocks Teater Tre
Which is more fun. Building up or knocking down? A happy story
about three characters and how they organise their world.
Blocks is a performance filled with slap-stick, humour and a touch of seriousness. Blue overalls inspire choreography that freely mixes the concepts of work and play.
For kids 3-6 years and families.
October, Haag, The Nederlands

Knitting Peace is the name of Cirkus Cirkör’s big show, which opened in January 2013. With this production, Cirkus Cirkör continues to change the world through contemporary circus by asking the questions – Is it possible to actually knit peace?
