Susanna Leinonen Company: BIRTH
World Premiere of "BIRTH" by Award-Winning Finnish Choreographer Susanna Leinonen Explores the Depths of Human Existence.
"BIRTH," Leinonen’s latest creation, takes the audience on a profound journey through the emotions, thoughts, and movements that define both our conscious and subconscious worlds.
Everything begins at birth. Even if the world were to end, I believe that a fragment of human DNA would endure, igniting a new beginning. The questions of where, how, and in what form this might occur are deeply intriguing, Leinonen reflects.
The work delves into themes of creation, identity, and transformation, seamlessly blending cutting-edge choreography with mesmerizing visual and auditory elements. "BIRTH" is a profound exploration of the human condition, showcasing Leinonen's unique artistic vision and the remarkable talents of her ensemble.
Audience discussions are held in the Erkko Hall right after the performances.
To ensure good visibility to everyone, The Erkko Hall auditorium is steep. Please note that there is no lift to the upper section. Only the first row seats are fully accessible.
