Description was written before the event

In the performance "FierS à Cheval", the French group Compagnie des Quidams presents a choreographed parade where mysterious figures - dressed as if from a Venetian dream of the future - slowly transform into majestic, inflatable white horses. The performance unfolds without a single word, accompanied by a symphonic soundtrack.

The performance lasts 30 minutes and is suitable for both children and adults.

About the venue: Margrethehaven

Margrethehaven is an 8,000 m² public green space in the Folehave neighbourhood of Valby, opened in May 2025. A formerly run-down area was transformed into an active meeting place with a streetball court, swings, a balance trail, a training area and pergolas. A greenhouse built from recycled materials hosts communal meals and local events. The project was developed jointly by the City of Copenhagen, Realdania, Lokale og Anlægsfonden and the housing association 3B.
