About the Company

The German dance ensemble OF CURIOUS NATURE (OCN) is the beating heart of the dance development concept TanzRAUM Nord and has been delighting its audience since 2019.

 

OCN brings together professional dancers from all over the world in the north-west, based in Bremen. Under the inspirational direction of Helge Letonja, the company is completely dedicated to contemporary dance. The language of movement is committed to the cultural present, always intense, emotional, and multifaceted. Between subtle inwardness and rousing energy.

 

With the means of dance, OCN turns the theater into a place of encounter. Whether in workshops, school performances, public rehearsals (also in streaming) or in personal conversations - the world of the dancers can be experienced up close, and the creativity of the dance art form is vivid.

"The music stands in stark contrast to the dance vocabulary of the ensemble founder and choreographer Helge Letonja, and is worlds away from the other choreography that evening. Both together had the character of a small festival - in just 90 minutes!"

Radio Bremen, Markus Behrens, May 2022

"With aesthetic and stylistic differences and subtlety, this two-part evening traces our existence in a world of speed and optimisation, in which a yearning call for connection and resonance is getting louder and louder."

Tanznetz, Martina Burandt, 10.2021
