Jo Strømgren:

Stigma

Closed

New ballet from Jo Strømgren

What kind of mark does the past leave on us? The Norwegian National Ballet explores possible answers in a newly created dance performance by one of Norway’s greatest choreographers.

In a timeless scene populated by the National Ballet dancers, Jo Strømgren shows how the thoughts and actions of the past leave their mark on us. A new full-length ballet production from Strømgren is rare, so this is one opportunity that should not be missed!  

To the core  

Jo Strømgren is the Norwegian National Ballet’s in-house choreographer, with the entire world as his workplace. His performances have been enjoyed by audiences in over 70 countries. His work is often full of theatre, made-up languages, dance and humour, but this performance returns to the core of his work, namely dancing.    

Modern ballet in typical Strømgren style is always a journey into associations and life’s greatest mysteries big and small, accompanied by references to both everyday life and world history.
