On June 13, the latest work by the dance company öfföff, “INSECTS or the Dance between Heaven & Earth,” will premiere at Gurten. The production promises a unique open-air experience that combines art, nature, and movement.

The performance invites you to perceive places in a new way and see the world from surprising perspectives. With its mix of dance and aerial artistry, öfföff brings the beauty and uniqueness of insects to the stage – or rather, into nature. The dancers move both on the ground and high up in the air, while the audience wanders from one scene to the next and experiences the production from different angles.

The performance focuses on the characteristic features and grace of insects. With great humor and sensitivity, the international artists embody the diversity of these small but immensely important creatures and convey an appreciation for the little things that are often overlooked but essential to the balance of nature.
