Mamootot

Guest Performance as part of Tanz im August

“Audience is seated in a square. Inside the square – the dance. Nine dancers, sound track of eclectic Japanese music, no text, no video, no props. For me, a research of new possibilities of movement, structure, organization, timing, tension, relationship of audience-performers, humour, repetition, dimensions, virtuosity, stillness, emotional development, sexuality, slowness, unison, speed, improvisations, overstatement, understatement, places I have never been before...”
(Ohad Naharin)
