‘Solaris?’ is taking shape

After receiving the news before Christmass that we could go on to make the project, the work has taken more and more shape in collaboration with my writing partner Maria Dorothea Schrattenholz. We have had writing sessions both in Tromsø and Oslo, and now working online weekly.
We recently started using Obsidian as a tool, which works well when it comes to the overall composition of the different text elements. We have given ourselves a deadline to finish a first draft of the script on the 28th of March, which will then be recorded and tested with the headsets.
We are looking to buy open headsets, so that the audience can hear the surrounding sounds during the performance, this also opens up the possibility for the dancers to use their voices.
The premiere is now set to be in Tromsø on the 1st of July, with following performances 2dn, and 3rd of July.
