Coco Chanel by Ulrike Quade Company (The Netherlands) and Jo Strømgren Kompani (Norway)

The Netherlands' Ulrike Quade Company and Norway's Jo Stromgren Kompani will stage an interdisciplinary performance co-production of Coco Chanel in October.

Coco Chanel was an icon of fashion. With her bold designs she liberated women from the corset.  The interdisciplinary performance Coco Chanel  features a wide range of puppets, absurdist methods of puppetry, portrayal of historical people, and a great dash of wild imaginative theatre.  It tells the eventful life of Coco, who despite being an orphan rose to the French upper class.  Her name is a symbol of equality and freedom for modern women today.
