NoDreams,NoGold2023Research
Lasse is a composer and a musician. Ingrid is a choreographer and a dancer. Their collaboration is often about finding new ways to articulate a working situation: where both operate as equal players, without having to be the same.
In 2019 Ingrid and Lasse made the performance Panflutes and Paperwork. Since the premiere at Theater Rotterdam it has been shown all over Europe. No Dreams, No Gold is their next stage production and takes trust and courage as thematic starting points for the performance: When does courageous amateurism become naive bravery? Can the promise of trust be an encouragement to fail confidently?
Ingrid and Lasse have different experience and perspective, but share the space of negotiation that arise when meeting in the periphery of their own expertise. Their friendship is an intrinsic part of their artistic material, which makes the work highly personal yet down to earth. With warmth and humor they contemplate the conventions in the performing arts, in order to learn more about what a choreographic language can contain.

"Seeing your work with Lasse Passage last night, I felt delighted that you found a partner in crime. I thought about my closest friends and collaborators, and what a joy it is to find people who trust you, who see what you see, people who might say "ok I can't believe I'm doing this but if you believe it's great, I trust you.""
