SINGLE BILL: Riiviöt - SUPER WE, SUPER ME
SINGLE BILL:
'SUPER WE, SUPER ME'
What kind of superheroes do we need today? What could superheroes accomplish if they joined forces? And what would your own superpower be?
We’re flying to another galaxy: Two superheroes, Elastrix and Stromax are adventuring on a distant planet. They each have the task of taking care of their magical home, but they seem to have opposing superpowers. So what happens when they meet?
In a colorful fantasy world, the two characters learn that together they can fly higher than ever before – and that they were not that different after all!
Super We, Super Me by Riiviöt is a contemporary dance production for young audiences aged 5+. The work invites children and audiences of all ages to discover their own superpowers, to imaginatively explore their surroundings, and to encounter fellow superheroes around them!
Created through the lens of “Queering the Superhero,” the work challenges prevailing notions of strength and power that children grow up with, and brings multifaceted, queer, and non-binary identities to the stage.

Riiviöt is a Finland-based international dance collective, founded by Eevi Kinnunen and Tasha Hess-Neustadt together with producer Lisa Kalkowski, and joined by a constellation of artistic collaborators. The name Riiviöt comes from the Finnish word meaning rascals. For our collective, the term speaks of disrupting existing systems through playful action, of youth-driven agency and autonomy, and of sparking transformation through imagination. Riiviöt creates contemporary dance works for young and adult audiences from queer perspectives.
