SUMMER PROGRAMME WITH JO STRØMGREN KOMPANI:
A Dance Tribute
to the Art of
Football

Summer at the Oslo Opera House with dance performances for the entire family!
Get ready to watch the football ballet that has taken the world by storm! This summer, you can see condensed versions of the blockbusters A Dance Tribute to the Art of Football and Made in Oslo at a reduced ticket price.
Contemporary dance for football fans
Since premiering in 1997, the world’s first football ballet has taken the world by storm! From 27 June to 21 July, you can see the ballet in a condensed, 30-minute version.
The performance explores football as a phenomenon, with everything from physical routines and violence to sheer madness, aesthetics and humour. It also offers political commentary on the artificial conflict between sports and art, and ridicules the pride and prejudices inherent to the notion of working-class football and upper-class ballet. The performance eradicates the boundaries between the two disciplines and highlights the shared entertainment value and diverse physical expression.
A complete and utter success. I’d see it again in a heartbeat.
