Hedda nomination to Carte Blanche & Tori Wrånes
RETRO CAT by Tori Wrånes is nominated to The dance performance of the year by the Hedda-jury 2024.
The performance had its premiere on the 23rd of may and played in total 9 sold-out shows through the Bergen International Festival.
RETRO CAT has received plenty of good critiques which includes a six from Karen Frøsland Nystøyl at NRK – I dare say that the dance performance Retro Cat is one of the highlights of Bergen International Festival this year.
Artist and composer Tori Wrånes has created spectacular works worldwide. In RETRO CAT, Wrånes has put her signature on choreography, composition, set design, and costume and mask design. The performance is a co-production between Carte Blanche and Bergen International Festival in collaboration with BIT Teatergarasjen.
We are very grateful for the nomination for this unique collaboration between the inspiring artist Tori Wrånes and Carte Blanche. I would like to dedicate this nomination to the entire committed team who has worked passionately to bring this creation to life, says artistic director Annabelle Bonnéry.
