In the dance performance ICH NEHM' DIR ALLES WEG - EIN SCHLAGERBALLETT (15+), choreographer Joana Tischkau turns pop hits into deadly blows. Beautifully shaped movements meet the stories of exoticized bodies and people - from Roberto Blanco to Marie Nejar. Using the example of black people in the entertainment industry, the performance becomes an examination of German culture and identity.

The performance is part of the 12th Festival Politik im Freien Theater.
