Well, not everyone can understand that. In clubs (formerly called “discos”), there is an unwritten rule that photography is not allowed on the dance floor. So in a crowded club, where all kinds of people let themselves go in the dance, express themselves, want to surrender to the music, slow or fast, smooth or staccato, there is a safe space. In the middle of the noisy crowd, visible to all, a respected shelter. This shelter allows freedoms that go deep into the private sphere.
And so the four different dancers also fill this space, which one can imagine as a club, even if it is not supposed to be one, in a very personal way. They follow their rhythm, their movement preferences, their thoughts in the protected space between. Each alone for herself, only to then repeatedly enter into short, later longer dance dialogues with one of the others or even all of them. And then she leaves again into her own. In this way, understanding and harmony gradually grow, despite the most diverse approaches.
Meanwhile, the audience can let themselves be drawn into their own world of thought by what they experience. They can indulge in memories, draw conclusions, observe meditatively, join in mentally or even get caught up in planning. The space in between makes it possible!
An absolutely successful evening of dance theater with great dance performances by the performers, framed by digitally processed reggae sounds (dub music), which together manage to draw the audience into the action (including their own). Congratulations to Thomas Kopp and team!
We are pleased that the Theaterhalle am Dom is also one of the partners of #endlichankommen.
