An explosive load of dance and performance from young artists in double packs, right before the summer break.
Not My Piece is Martin Schick’s introduction into the world of post-capitalism.
Complex economic circumstances find a new simplified form in a choreography of services and together they become the basis for a bizarre farce that actually reflects the truth.
In her solo Silk, Florentina Holzinger toys with fact and fiction and at the same time sways above on ropes and rings.
A powerful male trio dance a game of hide-and-seek in Shang-Chi Sun’s new production Uphill where they delicately play with the fine lines between playing pretend, provocation and trust.
Other artists combine dance, show business and pop-culture in their newest pieces: Ligia Lewis and Vincent Riebeek collide iconic images and cultural mash-ups together.
Dani Brown, Gael Clienow and Justin Kennedy examine the concept of home as a comfort and discomfort zone. Adam Linder deals with rap and its cultural influences on the body and artistic production.
The mixed bag of doubles concludes with a hot summer party with the motto: “It’s getting tight in here!” – we’re packing out the old desk phones, polishing the disco ball and throwing on the bbq!
WITH Dani Brown + Justin Kennedy + Gael Cleinow, Florentina Holzinger, Ligia Manuela Lewis + Vincent Riebeek, Adam Linder, Tommy Noonan + Thomas Jeker, Martin Schick, Shang-Chi Sun.
