In INTO IT, four dancers explore different forms of closeness—physical, emotional, and social. They move between the audience and the stage, making contact, sharing thoughts, picking up on impulses. Closeness is not only addressed, but created in the moment. The choreography emerges through exchange—inspired by movements from the space, continued by the dancers. The result is a simple shared structure: a line dance that is open to everyone. The piece is aimed at children aged 10 and above, teenagers, and families. It makes dance tangible as an open process and creates encounters beyond clear roles. At a time when social closeness often causes uncertainty, INTO IT invites us to approach it in a new way.
