For families, life sometimes seems like a big hullabaloo – there are challenges everywhere! Whether it’s on the street, on the train, at school or at home, whether it’s due to school absences, staff shortages or the weather – chaos lurks everywhere. Parents have to take responsibility, while children hardly know what to do with their energy. Yet everyone would rather have fun and games than stress and frustration. In the dance theater production TOHUWABOHU, Arthur Schopa – father, choreographer and dancer – and his two sons, aged 5 and 8, bring their shared experiences in turbulent times to the stage. Through dance and movement, they tell of the challenges, the little moments of happiness and the colorful chaos of family life.

KEIN ENDE is the fourth performance in our guest performance series LOOK for Dance and Diversity 2024 and embodies special moments in the life of 76-year-old artist Sônia Mota. She states: “(…) in the current decade of my life, my mind is beginning to adapt to my body.” Her way of expressing herself in dance has become more relaxed for her. She reflects: “ The need to physically move faster has reduced, my soul has also calmed down. And so my dance has become much more intimate and essential over time.” In her solo, the dancer shows how life cycles complement and renew each other.

“Parkinson’s limits my freedom of movement – I often experience myself as arrhythmic, angular, stiff…when I dance I follow the rhythm of the music and not that of the disease! Then I feel light. Everything flows. Dancing is positive energy…”
(Doro, 61, diagnosed with Parkinson’s in 2010)

The Contemporary Morning Class is aimed at young people and adults with dance experience (intermediate level).
In a perception-oriented warm-up, different movement possibilities and qualities are explored using improvisational methods. These are then transferred into energetic movement combinations in which floor work techniques and various principles from contemporary dance are applied.
The focus is on dynamic flow of movement, opportunities to burn off energy, individual learning and the joy of moving together.
DATE
Thursdays from 9.30 – 11.00 am
(excluding school holidays and public holidays)
PARTICIPATE
Participation is possible as a drop-in without registration.
Single-session ticket: Sliding Scale 9-15€
