Stina Force is a one-woman-punk band by choreographer and performance artist Stina Fors who simply has to be experienced live. No recordings of her music exist, and no two performances are ever the same, with everything unfolding in the moment. And in those moments there is no escape. With improvised voice experiments, grotesque monologues and the raw beating of the drums, she first pins her audience forcefully to the wall, then has it eating out of her hand. Toying deftly with stable and unstable states, Stina Force’s performances are tension-filled, full of wit, and power-packed with nerve-racking energy.

With a certain taste for the absurd and strange, Stina Fors, choreographer and performance artist, crafts unique, once-in-a-lifetime performances. As a self-taught drummer and shocking vocalist, Fors tours with her one-woman-punk-band, Stina Force, a band that is constantly under construction. Extended ventriloquism and overtone screams can both be seen and heard in her recent work, "A Mouthful of Tongues,” - a magic show where the voice appears detached from the performer's body. Her work is packed with tension, humour, and raw power. Additionally, she imparts her knowledge, teaching techniques to produce extreme voices like death growls without vocal damage. Stina Fors studied choreography at the SNDO school for new dance development in Amsterdam, currently residing in Vienna, Austria.

An international group of curators is responsible for the Performance Programme of STAGE Bregenz 2025: Perrrformat (Zurich), Marlene A. Schenk (Kunstverein Friedrichshafen) and Lukas Weithas (DOCK 20 Lustenau).
