Øyen and his company winter guests further explore their own responses to America, begun eight years ago in their play America—Visions of Love. From the outside, having learned early from America’s self-mythologizing narrative on films and television, and still squinting from the other side of a vast ocean, winter guests juxtapose their own pre-conceptions, and misconceptions, with the subjective truths of characters they’ve met in person, inside America. Øyen’s work as writer, director and choreographer has been highly acclaimed in his home country of Norway and abroad. Artist in Residence with the Norwegian National Opera and Ballet, he and winter guests are given the space and to make groundbreaking theater and dance, and Øyen is also commissioned to create work for companies in Norway and abroad.
