ANATOMIE DER BEGEGNUNG

Five people on one stage. Five bodies. Five perspectives. They examine each other: prejudices and insecurities, but also desires and longings that they feel towards each other. Before the encounter, there is an image, an assumption and an attribution. Then the touch. A hesitation. A glance. A first look. A body. A stranger. Surrounded by the protection of one's own boundaries, one's own skin bravely stretches. A little bit over the edge. A we emerges. Touched, honest and different.
The dance performance ANATOMY OF ENCOUNTER examines the fears and desires of contact that people bring to an encounter. What creates these fears? What can dissolve them? What role do our bodies play in this? Encounters become touch, are made visible and tangible. Physical and emotional aspects are deconstructed and reassembled in a joint search for honesty.

With audio description and German sign language interpretation.

45 minutes before each performance, interested visitors have the opportunity to discover the stage as part of a tactile tour.
