About MIKS
MIKS
Under the joint artistic direction of Anaïs Bouts, Sara Lindström and Ida Uvaas, MIKS is a vehicle for artists to create work collectively, challenging conventional ideas about ownership and style in theatre and choreography. Through a collaborative approach, MIKS aim to explore the edges of performance making by delivering provocative, risk-taking and entertaining performances.
