Tanztriennale 2026: Ricardo Urbina - I am different

In the organizer's words:

Performance as part of the Tanztriennale Hamburg, June 14 - 21, 2026

"I am different" is Ricardo Urbina's first full-length work, an intimate spoken word performance in the form of a letter - raw, vulnerable and fearless. The piece interweaves the life experiences of a muxe, a person considered the third gender in Mexico, with Ricardo's journey into the world of ballet, drawing parallels between tradition, discipline and otherness. In a choreography of body and voice, the piece explores identity and belonging, breaks down traditional gender roles and offers space to tell one's own stories. The performance is not a plea for understanding, but a clear statement of presence: this is me, and I am enough.
