Tampere Dance Current: Sandrina Lindgren: Hand in hand

Hand in hand is a performance that grabs onto cultural meanings of holding hands. It is a walking lecture that accepts that hand holding can be both loving and awkward at the same time. Dancer Sandrina Lindgren has created a beautiful and tangible performance that includes everything from weddings to demonstration, from folk dance to kindergarten kids walking in line.

As an audience you are guided through the art of holding hands. You will get to see how hand in hand can change the way you see the world and how you are seen in the world.

Hand in Hand is a guided tour for everyone who knows that touch is important for humans, but struggles to find ways to put that in practice in everyday life.
