Don Juan
Don Juan at Teater Sort/Hvid directed by Christian Lollike was not the traditional story about the life of Don Juan, but his requiem. Julie was there to mainly help choreograph the last act where circus artists, singers, actors and musicians come together.
In this version of Don Juan, Juan’s former lovers and acquaintances tell the story of how he raped, manipulated and took advantage of the people he met. The mass finishes with a party for the audience to attend where half naked entertainers such as singers, contortionists, sword swallowers and others lur the audience to succomb to temptation.
