Oslofjorden Danser is a series of walking performances initiated by Panta Rei Danseteater, taking place along and around the Oslofjord. The series invites audiences to experience contemporary dance in new surroundings. The aim is to bring the Oslofjord to life as a stage, while highlighting a rich diversity of artistic expressions, urban spaces, and encounters with nature. We look forward to welcoming both returning and new audiences to this unique experience.
