Momo - Eine Geschichte der Zeit

In the organizer's words:

A dance piece by unknown.possibilities.

What is time actually? - It must be something... Based on Michael Ende's novel Momo, the dance company unknown.possibilities. goes in search of traces of this question through dance. In their duo 'MOMO. A Story of Time', they immerse themselves in the motifs and characters of the novel and embark with them on an exciting search for the meaning of time and community. The question of how we experience time and how we want to use our lifetime is of great importance.
Momo, published in 1973, deals with contemporary issues that concern and affect us all in an increasingly fast-paced world. Momo, the heroine of the novel, protects people from the influence of the Grey Lords with the help of her friends, Kassiopaia the tortoise and Beppo the street sweeper, whose effectiveness they confront with empathy and mindfulness.
