DancePod #37: Jo Strømgren

46:53

PINPOINTING UTTERLY SAD HUMAN BEHAVIOUR

Internationally renowned Norwegian choreographer and theatre director Jo Strømgren has created over 200 productions. His latest work for Skånes Dansteater, 'The Dropouts', is a chaotic circus, full of flawed characters. Anything seems to be possible, but everything goes wrong.

Podcast host Kit Brown, one of 'The Dropouts' dancers, talks to Jo about his career, about making strange ideas accessible and taking the audience on a weird ride. 'The Dropouts' is a colourful and fast-paced piece full of unexpected twists and turns and, of course, sprinkled with Jo's absurd humour.
