Mari Carrasco

Have you ever wondered what Vikingline’s karaoke bar would look like at five in the morning if David Lynch directed existence together with Wednesday Addams? Burn baby burn explores that riddle. With the music as the pumping heart of the piece, Carrasco challenges the dancers with subtle movements and step combinations and invites you into a cinematic landscape and a dream world where the dancers soon become one with the music.

You are pushing it, just relax, it will go by itself, don’t put nothing in it unless you feel it. 
-Nina Simone
