@ Lørdagsbarna/Hamar Kulturhus April 2023
@ Vestland School Tour 2023/2024/2025.

A children dance performance with a raw, physical dance language in a magical encounter with a plastic tarpaulin. As a unified fold, the dancers move through various states and stages.

The piece creates space for own imagination through the mysterious and hidden world under the tarpaulin. The landscape is transformed through various shapes and sounds, from nature with various animals and beings, to fire, sea, waves and mountains. Everything has a connection where all actions have consequences and reactions.

A part of Scenekunstbrukets repertory since 2022.


“Roskva Yasmin Andersen's "Under Overflaten" is, on its part, a sculptural work that leaves much to the audience's imagination, and precisely because of its open form, it suits both children and adults. The starting point is very simple: A large, green plastic tarp is spread out over the entire stage floor, and slowly, life and movement are created in the tarp. It shivers, trembles, vibrates, waves, contracts, clumps together, and unfolds. The fascination lies in how it seemingly comes to life on its own. At the same time, everything takes a different turn when two feet eventually flutter towards us, and one of the performers wriggles out of the tarp and continues to explore it from the outside. Mads Solberg's soundscapes and music organically blend with the whole”. Review HERE.
