HNSL/GRTL
“I am confused. Thus, I will make a confused dance.”
Two versions of a single cell must find new strategies for old problems. The future is clear: fragmented dances and endless repetitions of the same facial expressions. Tick. Tock. Tickytock. We need to consider things from another perspective.
Going sideways helps.
In a parallel universe of well-known fairy tale Hansel and Gretel, about two siblings getting lost in the woods, their survival hinging on the development of co-operational tactics, performing:group, in HNSL/GRTL ponder the question how models of community, empathy, or universal relationship can become viable pillars of a possible future.
A performance illuminating the repertoire of non-partnership gestures between two people, and they also clumsily put up a tent.
With HNSL/GRTL. Eine Umarmung, performing:group connect to their own June research. During an open exchange at tanzhaus nrw, they began a dialogue on siblings with the staff of the Diakonie Düsseldorf.
Duration: ca. 70 Min.
