Electric Boogie School / Wave
2. Wave – Waves are streams or currents flowing through the body. This could be from fingertip to fingertip, or from toe to the head. The wave can also be passed on to other dancers when it has passed through the body. As many other Electric Boogie moves, waves are developed in California through the 1970s, but is also found in Indian dance.
Steen Koerner has learned this and many other techniques of Damon Frost from Berkeley, California

Danmark / Gnags Teaterkoncert
d. 30. september i Black Box Theatre, Holstebro
Knap 30 af de bedste GNAGS-numre igennem 45 år danner grundlaget for en helt ny teaterkoncert i version 3.0. Iscenesætter Steen Koerner vil sammen med et uddrag af Danmarks dygtigste sangere, internationale dansere og street artists udvide tid, rum og sted, når de til efteråret indtager Black Box Theatre i Holstebro. Teaterkoncerten kommer til at give en ny og anderledes oplevelse af at gå i teatret, da den allerede vil starte på parkeringspladsen, fortsætte i foyeren og restauranten inden det går løs i den sorte box.
Anders Jørgensen, direktør for Musikteatret Holstebro, udtaler:
Den kommende teaterkoncert i sin helt nye version bliver en teaterkoncert, som vi aldrig har set før. ”Danmark” bidrager på den måde til den vision vi har om, at Black Box Theatre skal være et af de mest innovative teatre herhjemme, et laboratorium indenfor scenekunst.
Peter A.G. er medskaber af forestillingenPeter A.G. er forestillingens guide gennem GNAGS-universet. Vi bliver taget med på en rejse i gennem 45 års musik, hvor Peter A.G. fortæller om sit syn på Danmark, livet, kærlighed, mennesker og den rå virkelighed. Forestillingen kan beskrives som et gesamtkunstwerk, hvor Peter A.G. bidrager med mere end 20 minutters helt nye videooptagelser, der indgår i forestillingen.
Peter A.G. har i forbindelse med skabelsen af forestillingen delt gavmildt ud af sine erfaringer, og deltager aktivt i skabelsen af teaterkoncerten.
Det visuelle koncept er tænkt klassisk i Bournevilles ånd, med nyskabende og fascinerende effekter, som publikum aldrig har set før. Derfor har vi indgået et samarbejde med kunstnergruppen DinMor og Obscura om at skabe et sprit nyt analog/digitalt univers, som gennem ’projection mapping ’på geometriske former skaber en scenografi af lys.
