New Movement Workshop in Bergslagen

  Jonas Engman who has worked in Sami shamanic traditions all his adult life will lead a workshop at Teatermaskinen June 14-17, 2025. During the workshop the group will focus on how contemporary sound and music can be incorporated into traditional Sami and Kven traditions and ceremonies, as well as how contemporary stage performers can learn from Sami and Kven practices. In the process the team (which include practitioners from theatre, dance, music and visual art) will use new technology that measure the bodily processes of the participants as well as the movements of the surrounding nature.) The workshop will be held in a traditional Sami Kåta. The workshop will include public performance in on June 15 and offers a unique opportunity to experience traditional animism in dialogue with cutting edge performative expressions.
