editta braun company Underdogs
Performance, 56‘

 An exciting sextet with elements of acrobatics, dance and drama about isolation and conformism, blind violence, merciless struggle, the rage of ideology and war, but also about the power of solidarity on the margins of our society.

Three women, three men, wheelbarrow, mattress, potted plants and a piece of meadow. Bodies hurl through the air, float weightlessly, are out of balance, fall crashing to the ground. Unisono in the group, individually in isolation. A dance-painting as if by Hieronymus Bosch.

'A piece with immense symbolic power, a crown jewel in the world of contemporary dance, a manifesto of resistance against indifference, an urgent appeal to the power of community.’ (Leo Fellinger in ‘Nachlese’)

Navaridas & Deutinger Bounce

 Performance, 50' 
Introduction at 20.00 at SZENE

Bounce combines movement, sound and rhythm in a unique concert choreography. Three dancers (Bruna Diniz, Matteo Haitzmann, Marta Navaridas) use skipping ropes and stage elements as choreographic and acoustic tools.

The sounds they generate are transformed and integrated into a musical landscape by Manuel Riegler's live electronics.

Accompanied by the experimental harpist Eduardo Raon, a combination of dynamic physicality, musical innovation and poetic intensity is created.

Marta Navaridas and Alex Deutinger are translators, choreographers and performers, working in the field of contemporary dance and experimental theater. Their works shuffle texts, live music and gesture in unpredictable ways, playfully questioning social formats as well as habits of perception. Based in Graz and touring internationally, the artist couple present their works in dance, theater and performance spaces, but also galleries, museums, and in public space.
