Andrea Caretto & Raffaella Spagna - Bright Ecologies | Experiences, Forms, Materials

windy, rainy or sunny: WE PERFORM

Visual artist Agnieszka Polska, awarded the renowned Preis der Nationalgalerie in Berlin, brings her first production to the stage.

Rooftop Jazz

In "Bad Ballet", three dance artists and a dance historian counter the homogenisation, discipline and hierarchies often associated with ballet through desire, exchange and joy. Andrew Champlin, Elizabeth Ward and Kevin Fay will co-facilitate a virtuosity-indifferent class, share their research and the ballet stories carried in their bodies, and transmit choreographic material based on "The Nutcracker".

Four artists want to be at the beginning. But what exactly is the beginning? Has the performance already begun and have they missed the beginning? Is there a "Once upon a time ..." at the beginning or do we have to start at the very beginning - with the creation of the universe?
