Tomorrow in a year! Congratulations!


A couple of weeks ago whilst having a glass of white wine at Humlan we met a guy called Jonathan Johansson. He told us about a project he was working on with Swedish (brother/sister) duo The Knife and Hotel Pro Forma in Copenhagen.

On Sep 2nd 'Tomorrow in a year' premiered in Copenhagen and today they had a fantastic write up in DN (Dagens Nyheter). Congratulations to you Jonathan, we are looking forward to seeing the show in Stockholm in Jan. Sorry we couldn't make it to Denmark!
The world seen through the eyes of Charles Darwin forms the basis for the performance Tomorrow, in a year. Theatre production company Hotel Pro Forma’s striking visuals blend with pop-duo The Knife’s ground-breaking music to create a new species of electro-opera. An opera singer, a pop singer and an actor perform The Knife’s music and represent Darwin, time and nature on stage. Six dancers form the raw material of life, choreographed by hip-hop inspired Hiroaki Umeda. Together with the newest technology in light and sound, our image of the world as a place of incredible variation, similarity and unity is re-discovered.
