“Peter Lodwick og Marit Krogeide represents the cream of Norwegian art. They express true love for the art and have created an artistic expression that connects to the audience. They are masters of their crafts and truly know how to captivate an audience.” Glomdalen, ”You and I and the two of us” Dans & Toner is a touring music- and dance company, specialising in performing for younger audiences. Musician and composer Peter Lodwick and dancer Marit Krogeide founded the group in 1991. Dans & Toner felt the need to embrace a wider audience than the established theatres and dance companies had hitherto reached. Because Norway does not have a long tradition in performing arts, it is of vital importance to create a public. Dans & Toner have therefore made a point of giving many of their performances in schools, thereby reaching people that would not normally have the opportunity to see dance theatre. Dans & Toner have a reputation for making untraditional performances where the barriers between the different performing arts are broken down and combined in ways that appeal to inexperienced audiences. The performances are often made up of shorter ballets by different choreographers and in different styles, with specially created music. Humour, drama and dialog with the public are some of the tools used to grip and hold the interest of the audience. One of the things that separate Dans & Toner from other groups, is its non-compromising attitude towards quality. Dans & Toner has received financial support from various national artistic funding organisations. Show less
