MODES of locomotions
Dance performance - 2007 and 2009 - 30 minutes
Two people, text and dance, words and music meet in encounters that touch us through their physical, emotional and psychological qualities and thus move something inside of us. They guide us on paths and detours, show us their strengths and weaknesses and let us experience ups and downs. The essential thought is that meetings, no matter of what kind, intensity and tempo, always move something inside and around us.
“(...) Man möchte an diesem Abend immer tiefer hinein”.

(...) die "Modes of locomotion" enden abrupt - auf die mögliche Weiterentwicklung des Stückes, das in seinem Konzept seit 2007 besteht, darf der Zuschauer jedoch gespannt sein”.
