Anima Obscura is a sumptuous total artwork that fuses choreography, video performance, animation, holograms, costume design and live music. The digital technologies challenge the expressive possibilities of dance to create an innovative, sensual theatrical experience.
In her first production for Scapino as artistic director, Nanine Linning explores the desire for immortality: from the occult practices of alchemists to experiments by biohackers.
The dancers are protagonists in the search for the one elixir that makes us invulnerable and enables us to escape our earthly limitations
The performance will feature Johannes Brahms‘ Ein Deutsches Requiem, cut with Yannis Kyriakides’ Ein Schemen – a contemporary ‘re-composition’ for choir, harp and electronics.
The music will be performed live by the Rotterdam Philharmonic Orchestra, Laurens Symphonic (choir) and live harp by Remy van Kesteren.
Anima Obscura will be performed exclusively at Nieuwe Luxor Theatre as part of O.Festival for Opera, Music, Theatre.
