Experience a dance performance that explores what time looks like when we stretch it in sync with a body outside the norm.
What does time look like if we stretch it in rhythm with a body outside the norm? trembl is a dance performance that portrays the experience of time from a chronic perspective. The performance works from the concept of “crip time,” originating from disability-queer theory, which describes the way disabled individuals are “out of time” with the pace dictated by societal norms. Based on the body's experience, a landscape is formed that is out of step with time as we know it. A time that navigates through grief, pleasure, mirrors, and science fiction.
trembl will have its world premiere as part of KSelekt. It is the second performance in the series the unapparent trilogy created by choreographer Ar Utke Ács. The trilogy began with the performance shivr, which processed the monstrous body and premiered in Dansehallerne's main hall in April 2025. Ar Utke Ács works with contemporary dance and expanded choreography. They are based in Copenhagen and Stockholm and are an active part of the Dance Cooperative.
