Echoes

“The Room” was just the beginning. Now, we step into a new chapter.

 After its premiere at Nyköpings Teater in 2020 and nearly 40 performances across Sweden, “The Room” is evolving into something new. A journey of passion, discovery, and unexpected turns continues, leading us into the heart of a new creation.

Following the acclaimed work The Room, Katariina Edling and Tobias Wallin continue their artistic collaboration in a new production where ballet, ballroom and film are woven together into a visually striking and emotionally resonant experience.

Katariina Edling was born and raised in Finland and studied at the Swedish Ballet School in Stockholm. Katariina had a long career as a soloist with the Royal Swedish Ballet but has also worked with Les Ballets de Monte Carlo and the Finnish and Estonian National Ballets. She now runs her own dance school in Nyköping.

Tobias Wallin: Tobias is perhaps best known to the public as a participant in 14 seasons of Let’s Dance, with two final placements in the show. He is an 8-time Swedish champion and has represented both the Swedish and French national teams, competing in both the European and World Championships.

[Ballet]

Ballet is a performing art form that strives for aesthetics and elegance in the physical expression of the body, requiring strength, flexibility, coordination, and harmony in movement. A ballet performance often combines several different art forms – dance, theater, music, painting, architecture, and costume design. Ballet dance is considered one of the roots of Western dance art.

[Ballroom]

Ballroom dance is a collective term for various partner dances that can be practiced both socially and in competitive settings. Ballroom dance is featured in several famous movies and TV shows, such as Dirty Dancing and Let’s Dance.
