Kulturleveranser warmly welcomes you to their second self-produced performance "DANS PÅ KNUST GLASS" by Beate Esthersdatter Myrvold. A personal staging about three generations of Jewish women's lives, talents and brutal encounter with world history. The performance deals with happiness, pain, joy and finding one's own way. The story is conveyed through acting, song and music. The project has been produced with support from, among others, Østfold International Theatre, Fritt ord, Jødisk museum, Scheibler and the Culture Council. The world premiere was performed at St. Croix in Fredrikstad on 12 November, followed by a tour that ended at Riksscenen in Oslo. In 2024, the show has been played at Trøndelag Theatre, among other places.

When the Second World War broke out, Beate's mother works as a dancer. She had to flee alone with a child in her heart, never danced again and chose to leave her daughter so far too soon. Beate herself did not learn that she was Jewish until after her mother's death. Now she conveys her own family history. For his own son. To prevent. We are proud to have staged this performance, which does not deserve to be taken as an income for political actions. Since our tour premiere, "Dance on Broken Glass" has received both praise and hate mail due to Israel's politics. Now we choose to face anti-Semitism with several performances.

"Life has become a dance on broken glass and she passes the shards on to me. Today I pick up the shards of glass from her life. Turn and turn them over. Hold them up to the light and see the sun break in all the colors of the rainbow as in a prism . From every flash of light, voices and music flow."
