FOG TALK

When you visit DanseFestival Barents, you won’t have to sit by yourself in the November darkness and ponder on your own after the performances. We like to gather everyone before we go home for the night. We challenge all the local Hammerfestians together with all our visitors to lift the veil on dance, and join in with our «Fog Talk» sessions. Here we share thoughts, critique, questions, wonder and joy about what we have just seen and experienced.

We gather a group of locals and invite them to watch dance with us, followed by a lively discussion about what we have just seen and experienced. Want to be a part of this group? If you join you will receive a free day pass to the performances. Please contact nanna@dansearenanord.no to join. There are limited spaces available.

These sessions are free of charge and lasts approximately 45 min.
