Lovedance deals with love from a queer perspective. As a counterpart to the Lovesong, Katharina Senzenberger and her team embark on a search for a Lovedance that approaches love in many different ways. The dance performance reflects on the possibilities of being together and creates new forms of togetherness.
The choreography draws on a collective archive of romantic gestures such as the Viennese waltz and pas de deuxs from the entertainment industry, which are embodied and questioned by the performers. Between dependence and trust, leading and following, resistance and devotion, the duet is dedicated to a practice of relation-making that speculates on how complex and ambivalently layered our relationships can become. Without fear of overlapping kitsch, confrontation, drama, empathy, rawness, care, expressivity and maximum sincerity, passionate togetherness unfolds as a subtle intermediate state.
Katharina Senzenberger's choreographic works include stage productions, installations and digital works and have been shown at tanzhaus nrw, Tanzfaktur Köln, Lehartheater Bad Ischl, Favoriten Festival, tanz nrw, Horst Music & Arts Festival and many more. Senzenberger's very first professionally produced stage work Wetland (2022) was invited to Tanzplattform Deutschland. This was followed in 2023 by the second stage production a dance routine in the senzenberger|rieck collective. Lovedance is Senzenberger's third co-production with tanzhaus nrw.
