MARTIN NACHBAR, GABI DAN DROSTE
ICH BIN'S, DEINE SCHWESTERN
No matter whether siblings are inseparable or on bad terms, loving or jealous – they can hardly escape each other. They play together, laugh and cry, quarrel and hurt each other, they help and occasionally annoy one another.
Upon the invitation of the KinderTheaterHaus in Hanover, the contemporary choreographer Martin Nachbar and the dramaturge Gabi dan Droste developed a dance piece for children on the theme of ‘siblings.’ Along with three performers, they bring different constellations of siblings to the stage. They not only examine how in the interplay of brotherly and sisterly closeness and competition, protection and distance, cooperation and fighting, own identities are formed, but also jointly create a new artistic thumbprint for children.
Sat 18 June, followed by a talk with Martin Nachbar and Gabi Dan Droste on the questions: ’What is contemporary in contemporary dance for young persons? What is relevant to the present in a rapidly changing world, in a multi-option society?’

ALIAS / GUILHERME BOTELHO
ANTES
With ‘Antes,’ Guilherme Botelho, the founder and director of Switzerland’s renowned dance company Alias, created a science-fiction piece on the beginnings of mankind. The twelve naked bodies full of energy and life on stage remind one less of a social group than of an accumulation of atoms, of molecules massing together and disintegrating. In a highly virtuoso manner and mastering even the tiniest movements of the body, the dancers appear as pure, organic life: precivilizational, creaturely, isolated from each other, and yet similar in their wild growth.
In ‘Antes,’ Guilherme Botelho explores the elemental conditionality of man as well as the individual’s original desire for community. The large group production is the first part of the Triologie ‘Distância,’ with which the Brazilian choreographer interprets the evolution of mankind in an idiosyncratic way.

LANDERER&COMPANY
REVOLTE!
In ‘Revolte!’, the Hanover-based choreographer Felix Landerer has his seven dancers fathom an explosive and highly topical theme: Is revolution still possible today? With their extremely dynamic movement vocabulary, the company deals with the lack of resistance in light of the many injustices in the world today, and rehearses a revolt in their dance. Attempts to revolt erupt in highly explosive group scenes, while individual dancers show that the conflict between the sense of responsibility and paralyzing indifference can also affect one’s own body. Felix Landerer sends his ensemble on a thrilling exploration tour of external and internal resistances, opening up astounding avenues of escape. The dancers and the audience are put in a state of revolt for the duration of one evening of dance.

CCN DE GRENOBLE / RACHID OURAMDANE
TENIR LE TEMPS
In his most recent dance production, ‘Tenir le temps,’ the French choreographer Ouramdane investigates the ability of humans to adapt to uncontrolled dynamics and draw individual and collective energy from their own powerlessness. 16 dancers constantly move through the space, encountering each other as a group or individually, and then drifting apart again in all directions. Their dance actions resemble avalanches, chain reactions, domino effects, or collective swarm movements, triggered by invisible yet overwhelming forces. Cause and effect can no longer be distinguished in this huge, complex group choreography.
While in his work to date, Rachid Ouramdane has engaged with concrete political and historical experiences made by the individual, in ‘Tenir le temps’ he examines the critical existence of man, but also the tensional relationship between individual and community as the driving force of contemporariness.

COOPERATIVA MAURA MORALES
STADT DER BLINDEN
Maura Morales‘ dance production ‘Stadt der Blinden’ / ‘City of the Blind’ is based on the novel ‘Blindness’ by the Portuguese Nobel laureate in literature, José Saramago. The novel describes how the sudden loss of vision spreads like an epidemic among the people. The state responds with drastic measures and locks the affected persons up in an abandoned psychiatric ward. Soon, the conditions in the building become catastrophic.
The Cuban choreographer and her group transfer Saramago’s central themes, the dehumanization of the blind and their apocalyptic living conditions, to an impressive study on the dissolution and disintegration of movement. With five dancers and a live musician, she shows the struggle for a declining civilization and the extremely thin line between humanity and barbarization in a world without rules.
