SHARING: Dance Me to the End

Individual-personal and shared resources are the source and focus of this group research, which ran for several months at Tanzhaus Zürich. The group of dance makers, all around 60 years old, researched and uncovered traces of their biographical and artistic histories and tested their effectiveness through dance, physical and linguistic practices. They exchange spaces of memory, share their working methods, trust their perception and move together into the center of their dance drive. They are also concerned with the question of how they can achieve an impact in other areas of society beyond the dance bubble. This research is the first stage of a long-term process.

The Sharing will be followed by a short audience discussion.
