Questions addressed to the universe !

We have been endulged with the festival pass to the Dance Festival Barents. It is insanely amazing to see so many performances in a short period of time.
Yesterday's performances brought about a lot of discussion amongst us.

Here are some questions that arose from the performances Praeambulum (Ingur Bjornsgaard Prosjekt) and Wild Places: Mountain (Roosna & Flak):

Praeambulum:
Did this piece aim to comment on gender stereotypes?
If so, why was there so much text about Bach in the programme?
Where came the esthetics of this piece?
Why did they choose Bach?
Why did they choose not to wear bra?
Was this a piece about sexual abuse?
Why did they use the plastic thing for such a short period of time?
How on earth did they become such talented dancers?
Am I too short/fat/ugly to be a dancer?
What kind of image of female/male gender does this piece draw in the world?
What kind of image of humanity does this piece draw in the world?
Why was the piece that long?

Wild places: Mountain:
Why did they use video footage in the performance?
What did they want to deliver/communicate/say/state with this piece?
Where came the sentense "I want salty peanuts" ?
How come you ended up using so much movement material?
Why did they use the "civilisation-shaking thing" for such a short period of time?
Why stage performances in general tend to be so long?
