Details:
The Centre Culturel Kinneksbond in Mamer will host a performance of dance production “When The Bleeding Stops” on Thursday 12 February 2026, at 20:00.
The production features Icelandic artist Lovísa Ósk Gunnarsdóttir and seeks to break the silence surrounding menopause — with "tenderness, humour, and unapologetic honesty".
When an injury forced Icelandic artist Lovísa Ósk Gunnarsdóttir to rethink her relationship with dance, she began exploring the unspoken realities of ageing in the female body. Realising how little she herself knew about menopause, she interviewed experts, pored over research, reflected — and eventually issued an open call. The response was immediate: dozens of women from across Iceland came forward, eager to share their stories.
Out of those conversations grew a warm, disarming piece that mingles stand-up, dance, and video to open a window onto women’s most intimate worlds. Oscillating between vulnerability and celebration, shame and laughter, Lovísa and a group of local performers invite us to greet this transformative rite of passage — hot flushes, mood swings, and dry mucous membranes included — with curiosity, compassion, and joy.
The production is performed in English.
Tickets are priced €22.50 (full price) and €8.00 (reduced) and can be purchased at https://kinneksbond.lu/fr/event/when-the-bleeding-stops.
