THE DAYS/PÄEVAD at Sakala 3 Theater
The Days Project seeks to engage with local communities and diffuse the hierarchies between different bodies as performers and movers In each location, Maria Nurmela and Ville Oinonen lead workshops for movers who are 65 years or older. This element of the project has proved to be incredibly rich for all involved, offering much-needed creative and social engagement opportunities for those most vulnerable. The inclusion of the elders lends the duet a tangible relatability, acting as a reminder for audiences that this could be anyone’s story.
