We move together in an urban community. We live and live to see change. We are part o fit. The performance programme MITTENDRIN establishes a space for arts and culture that allows for the pressing questions of our community. The diverse pieces presented here have different approaches to their works, that pose a political, cultural, social and personal challenge.

Connecting artistic works on a regional, national and interntaional level is crucial for the development of structures in the dance world. Artists connect through different groups and networks, such as: Förderinitiative Tanzkunst und Alter, studiotrade (European network), BUZZ (Bundesverband Zeitgenössischer Zirkus e.V., Kölner Modell, Tanz in Schulen. The communication leads to a collective working and thinking, which has a fixed place at ehrenfeldstudios.
