TWO PREMIERES, TWO CONTINENTS

In the summer of 2010 Lynch Company created BODA BODA, a dance theatre work made on location in Kampala, Uganda. The work chronicled the life of the motorcycle taxi drivers of East Africa called BODA BODA. Featuring both Danish and African artists the work premiered at the National Theatre of Uganda on August 28 and then toured Denmark as part of the arts festival, IMAGES OF MY WORLD (www.dccd.dk).

The second premiere was SWITCH VAMPYR, and was performed as part of the Dansescenen festival, THE BIG INTENSIVE. A dance performance on the theme of vampirism, the work featured the actor Charlotte Munck and dancers Tiziana Fracchiolla, Heloise Vellard and Wubkje Kuindersma.

TWO TOURS, TWO SOLOS

In 2010 and 2011 we made a European and Danish tour with the two solos, LYNCH CONCERT and THE ABSOLUTE ALL EGO SHOW. The 2011 LYNCH CONCERT tour kicked off this May in Copenhagen with an extract at Warehouse 9 (www.warehouse9.dk) and then proceeded to Aarhus (www.katapult.dk), Gothenburg (www.brotznow.se), Gent in Belgium (www.croxhapox.org) and then Amsterdam, Holland (www.ot301.nl). The final part of the tour will take place this coming autumn with performances in Spain and Germany (Precise details to be posted in September).

The second tour was in Denmark and took the THE ABSOLUTE ALL EGO SHOW the length and breadth of the country. The work originally premiered in 2008 and has now been performed almost a hundred times but now it has been put to rest. In Copenhagen in November 2010 at TEATER FÅR 302 it played for the last time.
