Cry Me A River is a multidisciplinary performance insprirated of the Carelian mourning tradition. The spectators embark on a journey in search of the inner rivers from which laughter and tears emerge. A combination of dancing, singing, circus and fine arts, the performance intertwines solos and collective tableaux in a choreography tending progressively towards the stark and unadorned, towards a human being, pure, as a tear.
