This theatre production is the result of a collaboration with the ensemble Konstra. Konstra is part of Språng, a cultural organisation where people with different disabilities meet in their common interest in performing arts.

The performing artists in Konstra have contributed their own ideas about freedom, which were then developed in a co-creation process in the ensemble. As a further layer of co-creation, the second-year composer students have composed music for the show and the fourth-year music teacher students specialising in improvisation are performing it live on stage.

Freedom on or off?

What does freedom mean to you?

Or for me?

How do you see my freedom? And what kind of freedom?

Of the child?

Of relationships?

Of the individual?

The body?
