Mobile Dreams – Trailer

 

 

Collaboration! Three nationalities, three brothers and four languages! Something happened on 2015 and something will happen on May 2016.

A funny and warm storytelling performance about the everlasting human search for truth and connection, freedom and beauty. In a playful stream of four languages (English, Norwegian, Finnish and Dutch) the three performers behind “Mobile Dreams” tell a string of tales both mythical and personal, all connected by the language of dreams.
By Torgrim Mellum Stene, Markus Luukkonen and Tom Van Outryve

3Troubadours are riding again! People of Belgium and the Netherlands, we are touring near you in May. Our show “Mobile Dreams” will be played in select venues in both countries from the 20th – 30th of May. Follow our page for updates on when and where.

Audience feedback from our Scandinavian tour August 2015:

“A lovely mix of different languages, dreams and emotions”

“Your show and the stories you told stayed with me for many days, and they touched something important in me”

“It is always good to experience when artists are able to combine humour and seriousness, light and darkness, and dares to show vulnerability”

“Great stories. Great Troubadours. I want more!”

See you in May!

Love from Markus, Tom and Torgrim
