The festival presents prominent international artists and their artistic visions.

The artists come from 11 different countries around the world

and will create a huge colorful expression of different voices and visions

that speaks to all of us, who are interested in performing arts, society and our common future.

Performances, concerts, video installations, dance performances, talks,

stage art workshops, work in progress performances and symposium

explore our ideas and images, our fears and hopes about the future

in a time of crisis, collapsed ideas and new opportunities.

The art has an important role to play in the transition between the old and the new

and in our need to create new sustainable visions and actions,

which speak many-dimensional to all of us.

We want the festival's participants to discover the artistic space

as an opportunity for development and participation in social life and democracy

and the development of new sustainable perspectives.

Singing Our Place.

Teater Viva has since 2015 worked with the cross art project Singing Our Place,

and has created performances, concerts, sound installations and community plays

i Denmark, Iceland and Greenland.

Singing Our Place Project explores relationships between people,

our living surroundings and our common future.

Singing Our Place Festival brings the experiences, inspirations

and international partners to Denmark and to Aarhus

with an artistic focus on some of the most important themes of today;

equality, democracy and climate change. Where do we want to go as a society ?

As humans living together with each other and with all other living things ?

The vision for Singing Our Place Festival is to create a common space

for diversity and exchange, a space for meetings and explorations,

for artistic expressions, that can inspire us to discover new ways of being in the world together

We live in times that call for our voices and engagements.
