Today we are on our way to the Faroe Islands to start the second part of our creation process with the new piece “Farligir Fiskar”. After a two week long residence in Malmö supported by Danscentrum Syd and The Swedish Arts Grants Committee we are ready to bring this project back to the Faroe Islands. We are so excited to meet the children from Lítlaskúla again and collaborate with Nordens Hus where the premiere is going to be May 30th 2021.

Digital visning av DO AS I SAY

Under corona pandemin vill Bobbi Lo Produktion göra det möjligt för skolklasser att uppleva en inspelad version av föreställningen     DO AS I SAY med en efterföljande workshop/eftersamtal.

DO AS I SAY är en dansföreställning som vill synligöra sociala beteenden i frågor om mobbning och auktoritet, föreställningen är interaktiv och både publik och dansare får inspelade instruktioner från högtalaren. Vi vill att  publiken genom att delta i eller se föreställningen ska bli medveten om hur lätt man kan bli påverkad av en grupp eller auktoritet till ett önskat eller kanske mindre önskvärt beteende. Mobbning är ett stort och svårbemästrat problem vilket kräver mod för att ingripa. DO AS I SAY ställer detta på sin spets och får publiken att fundera över sina egna och andras beteenden genom att skapa nya tankar och känslor..

I skapelseprocessen av DO AS I SAY arbetade vi med ungdomar från Sverige och Danmark i åldern 16-18 år, de fick svara på frågor och reflektera kring mobbning och auktoriteter i deras vardag. 

I samband med visningen av föreställningen erbjuder vi en workshop/eftersamtal med en klass i taget. I workshopen har vi specialkonstruerat en rad instruktioner som eleverna får testa på plats i klassrummet, sedan  diskuterar vi upplevelsen av föreställningen genom att reflektera över vad de såg och hörde samt deras egna upplevelser av mobbning och auktoritet. Vi tar utgångspunkt i den lärarhandledning som hör till föreställningen.
