Transit ends with a remarkable production, for
which composer Rolf Wallin and scenographers/choreographers Heine Avdal and
Yukiko Shinozaki bring together musicians, audience and stage elements into an
encompassing experience.
Rather than attending a concert, the audience
is entering a ritual, the purpose of which is unknown to them, but clearly of
utmost importance for those involved.
In THE OTHEROOM everything moves. The musicians have no fixed spot. There are no chairs, the audience is free to move or being moved. Elements of the room, the theatre, become part of the ritual, the movements, and serve as physical manifestations of the musicians' thoughts and its interactions.

Composers
Rolf Wallin
Rolf Wallin (born 1957 in Oslo) is one of
Scandinavia's foremost composers, widely performed and commissioned worldwide.
His musical background extends from avant-garde rock, jazz and early music to
traditional classical training, and this versatility is reflected in an
exceptionally many-faceted catalogue of works and collaborations with
outstanding representatives for other musical genres and other art forms.
Performers
fieldworks
fieldworks is the organization that creates,
produces, distributes and promotes the artistic work of Heine Avdal and Yukiko
Shinozaki. Heine Avdal and Yukiko Shinozaki's work is concerned with
“performativity” and allows for an open interpretation of movement as a
heterogeneous combination of a variety of media. Recurrent themes in Avdal and
Shinozaki’s productions include the relationship between performer and
spectator, the non-hierarchical approach to the various elements of a
performance, and the exploration of both theatrical and non-theatrical
environments.
