Traversee – WDS (wandering, dancing, singing) is a dance piece in which the working group creates a dialogue through the walking, now moment dance and songs born from the tip of the tonquies to / within the local landscapes in the different nature parks, for the creators, for the animals. This is durational, site specific, collective orientated dance piece which realizes through slow progression, live sound/songs, walks and physicality of articulation, sensations etc. At the same time, this piece invites the audience to be part of the collective body and mind and to listen.
