You are part of the audience. One of six people. You're not sitting, you're lying on your back, head resting on a cushion. Black above you. Music and sounds around you, you are in the centre of it all. The dancer’s body above you is close enough to touch and yet so far away, separated by an invisible glass ceiling, floating, weightless. Then suddenly your face meets the body. Very close. The gaze falls into your eyes. Who is looking at whom, who is exposed to whom?

Editta Braun and her team of artists create distinctive dance pieces that are consistently committed to an expressive, theatrical style, always interwoven with a decidedly socio-critical commitment. editta braun company has performed at renowned festivals in Europe, Africa and Asia. The intense and unifying experiences of travelling together flow into the production process and surround the performers with a special aura and strength. A large part of their distinctiveness is based on Thierry Zaboitzeff's compositions, which, despite their diversity, contribute a specific and recognisable colour.

Relationshifts explores the different phases and dynamics of a relationship in a limited space through dance. From the romantic-enthusiastic beginning to the shared space and the feeling of deep grounding and connectedness, to phases of longing for autonomy, the desire to break out of familiar paths, to leave obligations behind. Also included in the relationship package: betrayal, anger, longing, intimacy, compassion, sex, boredom, surrender and... love.
Relationshifts takes all these big words that are part of our everyday life together as a couple and declines through the emotional and physical aspects of a relationship in different life situations. The starting point is very personal stories of the artistic team, which the performance translates into global images, using choreography and music as a language in which the audience can discover everyday moments.
Relationshifts takes place as an exact one-hour piece and loops four times each evening in a chained structure. The audience is invited to watch one or more loops. In the same space, with the same choreographic structure but changing roles and parameters; the protagonists start the whole relationship all over again and again and again.
But are they really the same? Do they follow the same paths? Do they carry their personal history to the next time? Do they repeat the same patterns over and over again? Or do they want to experience something new?
Do they change, age, loose control, get tired, give up and yet start again?

Destination FCKD explores the phenomenon of “Non-Playable Characters” (NPCs) as an analog answer to human-like imitations in digital worlds. Negotiating their connection, the performers investigate physical and philosophical aspects of background characters, extras and NPCs in a surreal movement landscape.

The dance company Hungry Sharks was founded in 2011 by choreographer Valentin Alfery and photographer/creative producer Dušana Baltić and has been constantly evolving under their co-direction since then. Through changing formats, locations and constellations, they regularly create pieces for the stage and site-specific spaces that are characterised by a high degree of physicality, a strong visual level, the addressing of social issues and a conceptual-choreographic approach.
