costume and set design for Sveta Grigorjeva's show "Cosmodolphins"
Südalinna Theatre, Sõltumatu Tantsu Lava
2026
Are humans really as bad as we’re being told? Is a human a wolf to another human? And is our part only to doomscroll until the actual doom? Meh! COSMODOLPHINS is a performance that paints us a totally different picture! It tells us another story of humans and the world than we have been used to hearing and telling so far. Human – you are not as bad as you think! It may even be that humans are good…
Sveta Grigorjeva’s new performance combines folklore, utopia and science fiction to invent new ways to move forward as humanity. What kind of communities do we need? What kind of dances could we dance to create a more sustainable world? How can we be together in a world that keeps dividing us?
There are 12 performers on stage, both from the Südalinna Theatre and from outside – Grigorjeva has never collaborated with such a large collective before.
PS. The events might not occur in space, and dolphins on stage are not guaranteed.
