We interviewed two dancers, Siv Ander and Karin Thulin, who worked with Cullberg Ballet from its inception in 1967. In the interviews they shared their stories, their histories, their memories of dances, and dance experiences. From this material we developed a dance built from these memories, stories and fantasies of our predecessors, as well as revealing and sharing our own. We did this as a way to honor a great story teller and women of rich fantasy, Birgit Cullberg. This is our way of using dance as story, poetry, and fantasy, and building a choreography that feels like it is our own: \u201cjust like this, exactly like this, like this.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Dance and music: Eva Mohn, Eszter Cz\u00e9dul\u00e1s, Eleanor Campbell<br \/>\nMusician: Erik Nilsson<br \/>\nSet design: Eva Mohn, Mirko Guido<br \/>\nLighting design: Mirko Guido<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"p1\"><i>Momen<\/i><\/h2>\n<p class=\"p1\">By Daniel Sj\u00f6kvist<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">In his new piece Momen, Daniel Sj\u00f6kvist is inspired by Birgit Cullberg\u2019s <i>Romeo and Juliet<\/i>.
