Choreografie: Greta Schuster | Tänzerinnen & Tänzer: Elvan Tekin, Emma Hedemann Christensen, Eva Leemans, Natascha Roy, Aaron Carey- Burrows, David Mariano Chaho, Alma, Ida, Inka, Juli
Sechs Kurzfilme gewähren Einblick in Situationen, die sich hinter verschlossenen Türen abspielen. Sie veranschaulichen sehr unterschiedliche Thematiken: Das Verfallsdatum einer Freundschaft, das Festsitzen in Alltagsroutine, Mädchen, die „frech und wild und wunderbar“ sind, häusliche Gewalt, vom Internet geprägte Tagesabläufe oder die subjektive Wahrnehmung vermeintlicher Wirklichkeit. Die Kurzfilme werden von zehn Tänzer*innen performt, die zwischen acht und fünfundfünfzig Jahre alt sind. In Anwesenheit der Macher*Innen und Tänzer*Innen!
Trauma Bar und Kino Movement Residency
This residency was granted by Trauma Bar und Kino in 2020. During the process dancer Gianna DiGirolamo and I researched movement material centred around themes of over-consumption, waste and nature, both human and animal. Two big aspects of the piece are the Birds of Paradise, which are a species of birds with unique mating rituals and shapeshifting abilites, as well as the use of plastic bags and recycled clothes.
Unfortunately the process has been delayed by Corona and many of the further processes to create have been cancelled or set back.
Beautiful Landscapes
Life could be over by tomorrow. Time for a memento mori. But could everything have turned out differently if we had only known more, believed more, wanted more? BEAUTIFUL LANDSCAPES (BLÜHENDE LANDSCHAFTEN) by LUNA PARK/Kosmas Kosmopoulos is a breathless course over green fields of rubble. A wailing, aggressive chorus of human and nonhuman voices sings their disappointment at all the unfulfilled promises made by the West and is struck down by the echo of its own failure. All of it ends in a ceremony of tears. But are the tears real? Or just for show? BEAUTIFUL LANDSCAPES sets out in search of adequate grief and the art and grace of mourning.
