DO THEY DANCE FOR STRANGERS?
3rd year mid-term show
(2019-2020)
A performance of ideals, devised by the team in collaboration with the director.
Three daughters who hate their mother. An influencer named Heil. A woman who never washes her sex toys after use. What does the sensual dancer Ramul from Skive have in common with Fie, who cries on her couch in her room in Copenhagen? Why does Kaj want to be the guy who drinks energy drinks all the time? Do people still do magic at bachelor parties? What is a romantic evening for you? When is it good enough? What is success?
Director: Lykke Sand
Cast: Kirstine Sjølin Scharfs, Malene Norreen, Marco Grimnitz, Lise Pleidrup, Jacob Skyggebjerg, Mette Omann Hansen, Jesper Møller and Josefine Glæsel.
DNA
by Dennis Kelly
2nd year final performance
(2018-2019)
The human community is a cosmos. No one is dispensable. We are herd animals, we live together, we flourish together, we stand and fall together. One way to be together is to play with Adam. It's a lot of fun. Adam is up for the craziest things. But now Adam's dead, and I think it's our fault. Fuck, fuck, fuck, fuck. So what do we do?
Direction: Carsten Kressner.
Cast: Jacob Skyggebjerg, Jesper Møller, Josefine Glæsel, Kirstine Scharfs, Lise Pleidrup, Malene Norreen, Marco Grimnitz, Martin Dupont and Mette Omann Hansen and Frederik Mechlenburg (guest)
The show and the actors have since become part of Ishøj Theater's repertoire.
