Kylian, Forsythe, Øyen: Oslo Opera House

About the Event

The Norwegian National Ballet will perform works choreographed by William Forsythe, Jiří Kylián and Alan Lucien Øyen at the Oslo Opera House.

Tiger Lily by Kylián is performed with a string quartet playing on stage. The music spans from John Cage to Bach’s iconic 'Goldberg Variations'.

In the Middle, Somewhat Elevated by Forsythe is a spectacular and pulsating ballet performed to electronic music by Thom Willems.

Timelapse by the Norwegian National Ballet’s resident choreographer Øyen is inspired by the 'Back to the Future' movies and focuses on time, expectations and nostalgia.
