Dirty Deal Teatro (Maskavas street 12/k2) will house a musical electro-step-dance performance Feetbox Sessions by creative group Indictus Company from Helsinki. It was founded in 1998 and is led by creative director Ari Kauppila.
From the very moment of founding the main emphasis in Indictus Company performances is non-verbal communication by uniting music, rhythm, motion theatre, dance and cutting-edge technology. Feetbox Sessions is a new creation, developed just this year. Indictus Company artists have previously performed similar shows, and the acquired experience and skills have been used in the making of this performance.
Ari Kauppila, the creative director of Indictus Company, is a Finnish choreographer, actor and performance artist. He has graduated from Theatre Academy of Finland with a bachelor’s degree, now finishing his studies for the master’s degree in choreography. The emphasis in Ari Kauppila’s performances lies in the rhythmical pace of the dance and comes forward with a new version of tap dance, complementing it with cutting-edge technology and creating colourful, joyful and surprising interplay of movement, rhythm and music by very simple means.
Simo Reunamäki has been performing as a tap dancer since his very childhood and right now is also a musician. He has been working with Indictus Company since 2004.
