Sivuun Ensemble & Kallo Collektive: Neigbour

A performance for everyone who has ever had a neighbor.

Combining contemporary dance, aerial acrobatics, and physical comedy, Naapuri takes a peek into the parallel lives of people living in an apartment building. The performance brings to the viewer’s doorstep a recognizable and delightful neighborhood and its lovable and tiresome residents. Through encounters between neighbors, painful perspectives on broader social issues of our time, such as hierarchies, changes in solidarity, and belonging, are revealed.
