Jump on an astral train taking you on a journey of transformations. Turning David and Goliath into a Centaur, climbing a mountain or singing a love song, Žigan Krajnčan and Gašper Kunšek invite dream-like images on stage. ALIEN EXPRESS is a disarming and gripping duet, solidly anchored in a refreshing friendship.
Žigan Krajnčan was born in Kranj in 1995. At the age of four he began attending violin lessons. Six years later he decided to switch to trombone, which he played for three years. He was also a member of three different youth choirs. At primary school, he acted, sang and danced in two musicals and a movie. When he finished his primary school education, he enrolled a secondary school focused on contemporary dance. Even though he had very little dancing experience, he passed the auditions. He has been dancing for four years, and up until now has received several awards and worked with Matija Ferlin, Kaja Lorenci, Gregor Luštek and other renowned choreographers
Gašper Kunšek was born in Jesenice in 1997. At the age of 4 he began with soccer and dance lessons. Although his football career was very promising, as he was few times selected for the best player of the tournament and his club, Triglav, made it to the Nike Cup Challenge in Poland, dance soon took the priority. He has been dancing for 14 years and has won several awards. He participated in the play Pozabaa by Ivana Djilas, and he is a member of Abismo Crew, Urban Roof team, Hidden Slavic DNA and Body Preachers.
