Happy New Year!

2017 kicks off with a trip to New York for our managing director Sunniva Steine. From 7th to 10th January she will be in New York as part of a delegation from the Norwegian performing arts scene, promoting both brand new works and current touring productions by Jo Strømgren Kompani.

The main event during these days will be Satellite Meeting at the fifth edition of the convening Norway Now, taking place Sunday January 8th. Norway Now serves as an opportunity for North American presenters, curators and festival directors to discover a wide range of independent Norwegian artists creating exciting new works in film, dance, physical theater, opera, live music, puppet theater and video art. Held annually in New York City at the renowned Scandinavia House, this year’s convening has been reworked as a forum for eighteen Norwegian artists and their producers to pitch new works to a specially invited audience. Sunniva Steine will give a 5-minute pitch about our most recent premiere The Virus.

During her stay in New York Sunniva will also be available for meetings. Please contact her at sunniva@jskompani.no to set up a coffee date!
