[+] CHARLOTTE ENGELKES (SWEDEN)
Miss Very Wagner
Women who were divine.
Women who fought for love.
Women with swords.
Women who spoke their minds. Loudly.
Immensely funny, breathtakingly intense, truly engaging, Engelkes’ solo and ensemble pieces have gained critical acclaim all around the world.
In Miss Very Wagner, Engelkes takes her exploration of monumental myths a step further. A solo filled with love affairs, passion, destruction, sail canvas, and heart-rending swan song, the piece opened at Dansens Hus in Stockholm in February 2006 to rave reviews.
Co-produced with Sasha Waltz & guests, Grand Théâtre de la Ville de Luxembourg and Dansens Hus in Stockholm. The production is made possible with the generous support of the National Council for Cultural Affairs, the Arts Grants Committee, the Cultural Department of Stockholm and the Goethe-Institut Stockholm
