An extraordinary floating dance – and music event through
Copenhagen Inner Harbor 7th +8th August 2009, 10 PM to midnight
SUBMARINE BALLET is a public and free event for all citizens of Copenhagen.
An artistic experiment featuring submarine builders, sailors and 50 international dancers, musicians and installation artists.
On large illuminated fleets surreal and dreamy sceneries are floating through the
Copenhagen city central water way. The audience can follow the event from public
squares, bridges and dock areas along the inner harbor.
A floating symphony orchestra, courageous dancers in costumes made of light, splendid, fire art and light installations in the water, the event culminates repeatedly in cycles through the inner city harbor. Recommend viewing spots are Islands Brygge, Sorte Diamant (Royal Library) and Skuespilhuset (the Theaterhouse) in Nyhavn.
The armada is traveling from south to north, then north to south, offering multiple viewing choices and perspectives during the 2 hours
SUBMARINE BALLET is a both raw and poetic work of art, drifting
through the busy city night, through traffic and noise, completely separate in a
floating world. The fleets appear as both supernatural dream visions and as an odd yet
original way of rethinking theater and installation art.
You can watch the short (4 min.) or the long version (22 min.) of this video (HD off for slow internet!))
