Added performance due to high demand
Mikko Niemistö: The Tormentor Nov 10th at 16:00
You may have noticed that all the three performances for Mikko Niemistö’s The Tormentor are fully booked by now. But – great news for those who have missed the tickets: we are adding a fourth performance due to high demand.
This sacrilegious clown performance will be shown additionally on Tuesday, November 10th at 16:00 at Mad House and Reality Research Center’s Parvisali stage!
The Tormentor builds up as a weird and sacrilegious clown performance—a solo that creates cracks in this archetypal theatrical character and places it in the frame of contemporary choreography. In the piece, choreographer Mikko Niemistö draws from his past studies of physical theatre, fusing them with his practice of associative and improvisational movement practices. Inspired by dances, traditional clown routines and the upside-down world of carnival, the work draws from historical manifestations of clowns and jesters, from medieval carnivals to Finnish pre-Christian and monstruous pagan figures.
Looking forward to seeing you later this week as we open the festival!
Yours,
Moving in November festival team
