JUANITAS

by Berstad / Helgebostad / Mariblanca

Juanitas brings you on a choreographic journey into contradictions. Here, imagination and reality, the hopeful and dystopic, the caring and risky, the vital and the apathetic are in constant motion, like an unapologetic thought that never settles.

Juanitas is on a mission to re-enchant the world, and wants us to see the labor in the process of making magic. The goal is to awaken people by revealing cracks and connections between reality and fantasy - time is precious. Juanitas can teach you things you already know deep within but have forgotten.

Mariblanca, Berstad and Helgebostad met in 2019 while working with Berstad and Helgebostad’s project KNOW HOWS. It was in this project that Juanita was discovered. In the pandemic Juanita visited elderly homes and a children's hospital, before her own show was created
