‘Sometimes it's There' is an intimate performance created by two young choreographers and friends, born out of a need to join their creative forces. This atmospheric piece is a search for subtle shifts of meaning in movement, words, sound, and light. The performers play with emotions and humour, both introvert and extrovert, to create a hypnotic and warm-hearted dance performance.

'Time stands still. Music is playing softly in the background. They speak..'

Welcome to this home, away from home home.

From here on you know what it means.

Sometimes we don't feel it at all but it's there,

waiting for the green light to come

We can say it again: it's there

 

Ulrika Kinn Svensson and Koen De Preter both graduated from Fontys Dance Academy in Tilburg, Holland, in 2003. As their graduation project they created the duet ‘Follow, follow' and soon after found their way into the international dance world. Ulrika works with Sidi Larbi Cherkaoui, Chris Haring and T.R.A.S.H. Koen works with Raimund Hoghe, Sasha Waltz, Keren Levi and Fanny and Alexander. He has also created four of his own pieces under the banner of fABULEUS in Leuven (BE). The most recent ‘We dance to forget' was selected by the international festival circuit.
