On the way to order

At the webpage of BIT Teatergarasjen the following is written about On the way to order by Impure Company/Hooman Sharifi:

"On the way to order is an open project with five dancers and two musicians who deal with different subjects every night, and who in Bergen for the first time open the door for the audience in a room in which the artists with openness and transparency will confront themes such as sorrow, collectivity, love, self-sacrifice and rituals, and which, like this text, has already decided to avoid using dots, instead giving pause through commas, as to give a small breathing room in between the musicians, one percussionist and one playing the Persian instrument called tanbur, between dancers who pile up stones, who throw themselves at each other, who pull each other, who will all delve into and talk about Plato's dialogue Symposium, or The Drinking Party as it is also called, one of the most wonderful text compositions in the world, in which love is attempted to be linked to terms through seven different tribute speeches to Eros, placed in a long and alcohol-filled night between men some place in the ancient Greece, where sorrow will also find its place in a Persian ritual known as Ashura, in which groups of people come together and go through a collective ritual of mourning."

Impure Company is supported by: Arts Council Norway and The Norwegian Ministry of Foreign Affairs /MFA (travel grant/performing arts).
