Breaking the Fury

Exuding raw vitality, Breaking the Fury dives into a world of rites and trance. On the one hand, shamanistic, on the other hand, futuristic work is constructed through strong opposites, creating a world where power relations compete against each other. The tensions that build up between the individual and the community reveal the rage and violence smouldering beneath the surface.

Choreographer Susanna Leinonen’s personal and physical movement is hypnotically captivating. Hip hop artist Kasperi Laine’s first composition for orchestra together with strong visuals complete the suggestive and all-sense-pleasing overall work.
