Yonder is a dance performance in a coming of age format, a teenage hangout in an eternal summer night. In the middle of the universal and the “I get shivers all over my body” feeling, a group of people wait for life, while they live it intensely. What happens is nothing, and everything at the same time. 

In the choreographer duo OR/ELLER’s new work, we meet six young dancers who embody the teenage roar in a powerful and captivating performance. We sit around the stage and feel the breeze from their bodies. A chance to experience what the proximity to dance awakens in us.

The marriage between Hildegard and Jörgen has probably been strained even before the strip club came to the village. But now! No one is left untouched by this incredible addition to the entertainment scene, who is for it and who is against it? As if that weren't enough, Näcken herself is roaming the edge of the forest.

The frustrated Hildegard, played by Anna Blomberg, has her life turned upside down. When she and the dancer Jessica chase the mysterious Näcken, not only does an unexpected friendship arise. She also realizes that the secret she has been carrying will soon be exposed.

In the middle of a small town, everyday life, dreams and longing meet. In Hildegard and Jörgen's combined living room and foot care salon, life goes on in all its quiet confusion, while the new entertainment establishment lures with glamour and promises of something more. And out in the forest, Näcken keeps vigil between nightmare and daydream, between allure and danger.
