LE MONDE NOUS REGARDE (Die Welt schaut auf uns)

What was once everyday life is now a distant memory for them: normality. While the news moves on, people who only yesterday drove taxis or ran small restaurants are struggling with the wreckage of their biographies. The Russian war of aggression has torn them from their lives, forced them into trenches, and brought them to Germany severely injured.

Dance Performance | By Willie Stark
As part of the thematic series Focus on: TIPPING POINTS

Practice unfolding
A preview of the performance offering an insight into the first phase of the creation process and tracing the work in its formative stage before the premiere (35 minutes).
This work, directed and choreographed by Willie Stark, is a physical exploration of the concept of resistance to erasure, silencing, and control.

Like Lovers Do by Sivan Ben Yishai is a radical, poetic exploration of the abysses of romantic love. It deconstructs the language, images, and promises through which we approach one another, and unsparingly reveals how deeply they are shaped by control, expectations, and possessiveness. What begins as a search for closeness turns out to be a web of power and violence—within the tension between desire, longing, and patriarchal structures.

Dance Performance | By Anna Lublina

Rhythm travels, rhythm migrates, rhythm adapts, rhythm resists. Rhythm is a vibration that synchronizes one’s own heartbeat with that of another. In this performance, rhythm embodies the Jewish diaspora and reaches back into the past of shared Jewish-Muslim worlds that were not defined by borders, nationalisms, or the divisions that emerged with colonialism.
