"DECADANCE is an hour in dance paradise, and comes after a SACRE which should have strong reverberations throughout Europe” — Dagens Nyheter
“Deeply moving” — Svenska Dagbladet

KULT presents two of the leading artists in contemporary dance: the legendary Ohad Naharin and rising star Roy Assaf. KULT begins with SACRE, a world premiere created by the multi-award winning Israeli choreographer Roy Assaf, to Stravinsky’s phenomenal The Rite of Spring. A refined and exquisite counterpart to the potent music, played by the Göteborg Opera Orchestra. Solely for GöteborgsOperans Danskompani, Ohad Naharin has created a new version of his work, DECADANCE, called DECADANCE GOTHENBURG. DECADANCE is a work in constant flux; a kind of collage of Ohad Naharin’s best work. DECADANCE GOTHENBURG is an appealing work that brings the audience closer to the dance and the dancers themselves.
