Headfirst Editor's Pick
"Impermanence programmes yet another boundary-pushing dance / physical theatre delight in the celestial surrounding of the Mount Without. The Days sets a minimal, almost Scandi noir, scene for Maria Nurmela and Ville Oinonen to explore alternating movements and bodily narratives of empathy and care."

IMPERMANENCE Presents... THE DAYS: A compelling duet from Finland about care, resilience and the desire for connection
The Days invites the audience to share an encounter with two exceptional Finnish performers, Maria Nurmela & Ville Oinonen. Caught in an impossible loop of absurd and heartfelt exchanges, The Days engenders a world of shifting negotiations, complex feelings and comic disconnection. Taking the form of a lifetime shared, this is a compelling duet about care, resilience and the desire for connection.
