„Moose dance company was founded 1998 by Anders Jacobson and Oscar von Seth at the Swedish Ballet School. At the time we were mostly working with jazz and hip hop and other happy stuff. But with time we grew more serious and difficult, and are fighting for the right to say something important, in the endless stream of plastic entertainment and unfair ways of our society. Today we work as a dance and art collective, and we’ve made large and small productions, that has been played in sweden and europe. we also made some short dance films. The collective is being held together most of all by the dancers Anders Jacobson and Emelie Jonsson, light designer and film artist. Moose is based in Stockholm and is questioning the authority of choreographers towards dancers, and all artist taking part in any process are allways working together. We are trying to inspire other dancers to become creative artist in a bigger sense. We have no leader and we always look for ways to work where everyone’s opinion has the same value. Sometimes we have a sort of project based, rotating leadership, where one or more persons have the main responsibility for a certain piece. We want more individual creativity in dance art, where the dancers are more artist and less athletes. As dancers making own productions, we also get a greater integrity when working for other people. Artisticly the group is always looking for different ways of expressing, and the starting point for creating a piece is never the same. Since different artist are involved in the different projects, the artistic form is never the same.
Come dance with us now tells everyone to take their creativity seriously. To give play and expression more space in our everyday lives. This hippie piece is a duet that was originally performed at the 50th aniverary of the dance museum in stockholm, june 3-8 2003. That day, when everyone uses their forgotten creativity and throws their all too dominant passitivity in the garbage. That day, when everyone turns off their television and rejects fame factories and big brothers. That day, when it doesn't take a celebrating dance museum for two people to dance in the street. That day there are no semi public spaces, and that day there is love and piece.
