BLOODY MOON is a vibrant and sensual dance performance brimmed with humor. Here, a group dances their final dance while embracing life in all its splendor. Aware of life’s final and ready to overcome by a dizzying sensation as they approach the abyss. BLOODY MOON is inspired by the famous work of the French thinker Georges Bataille on desire, eroticism, liberation, and madness, and marks the first world premiere for Danish Dance Theatre’s artistic director, Marina Mascarell. Mascarell has created works for some of the world’s most renowned companies, including Nederlands Dans Theater (NDT),  Australian Opera Ballet, GöteborgOperans Danskompani and Skånes Dansteater.

This contemporary dance performance delves into the Law of Jante, as envisioned by Marina Mascarell and the mongrel community epitomizes a group of narrow-minded individuals propelled by envy and apprehension towards the unfamiliar or new arrivals. They fail to celebrate uniqueness, instead exalting mediocrity and ensuring conformity while oppressing any divergence from the norm.
