Flannel Dream

Flannel Dream is an intimate duet between two butches, set in a landscape of flannel shirts. Butch-on-butch relationships finally get the epic love story they deserve.

Flannel Dream premiered as a triple bill together with Flirt and Roses, at Teater Innlandet (Norway) as part of Move Dance Festival August 2021.

Flannel Dream can be programmed as an independent piece (18 mins), or together with Flirt and Roses as one longer performance (about 60 mins in total).

The performance can be adjusted to the conditions of the stage and arena, and is suitable for artistic, feminist and/or queer contexts.

Flannel Dream also exists as a dance installation, suitable for galleries/museums. The dance installation premiered at Kunstbanken in Hamar Norway during SIB Dance Lab June 2022,

as a two-hour performance where the audience could come and go as they pleased.

MERCH!

Our very own specially designed flannel handkerchiefs can be bought in connection with the performance.
