Nitsan Margaliot: Foresigns

FORESIGNS - TRIPLE BILL. An evening of 3 pieces by Berlin-based choreographer Nisan Margaliot: A Visit, En Moon and Returning. A Visit, created with Mari Sawada and premiered with Solistenensemble Kaleidoskop at Radialsystem. It deals with abandoned stories and previously experienced encounters. En Moon is a solo work performed by Scott Jennings, is a prayer to the moon by the last living being that brings back memories to the world. Returning, performed with the cellist Boram Lie, questions how one can exist outside of their own skin - it emphasizes the impossibility of having a complete perspective and objectivity on ourselves.

Ursina Tossi: Cosmic Bodies

Tremble. Touch. Feel if the stone is a stone or an alien. Roll. Harmonise with the chemicals. Transform. Vibrate. Blend the human with your olfactory organs. Breathe. Aliens embody the threatening - the absolutely different - the incomprehensible, the feminine, wilderness, chaos and the monstrous. In COSMICBODIES seven alien bodies move from their own inner world into outer space - until outer space and inner space merge. COSMICBODIES is a dance piece for people with and without visual impairments and integrates an artistic audio description. This is new show by Hamburg choreographer Ursina Tossi is part of a choreographic series of critical queer-feminist perspectives on the constructions of femininity and monstrous bodies in the context of mythological history(s) and pop culture.

Ursina Tossi: Swan Fate

SWAN FATE is a queer feminist appropriation of the ballet classic Swan Lake. Ursina Tossi and her company break with traditional concepts of love and fate and formulate their very own, diverse and contemporary declaration of love for dance. In SWAN FATE, the dancers play with longings, virtuosity, physicality and vulnerability, searching in the choreography and in their bodies for the traces that Swan Lake leaves behind. They also engage with the dance heritage, as well as the violent and colonial narratives and practices of ballet. To the music of the band CocoRosie, newly composed especially for the piece, not only different urban dance styles are mixed with contemporary dance. The dancers glide from one role to another. The shapeshifting between swans and humans, the change between marginalized and mainstream perspectives opens up new fantasies and imagines loving encounters between animals, humans and other beings

vT corp Sexy Straight White People

Play the game, but play it smarter than the Jesses out there. Be faster, fly higher, show them what you’re made of. And when you’re ready, there’s still enough room for a life without this constant charade. Because then they’ll have to listen to you. The private sphere is political. Especially in the lives of the artists inside H&M. It is so political, in fact, that there no longer seems to be any boundaries to anything at all. Everything is art. Even the private. But above all the political. If H&M is not a fashion label, not a queer artist couple, and certainly not a representative of the hip Neukölln club culture scene, then what are they? A film whose image does not show itself. An exhibition whose context is missing. A song without artists. A piece within a piece without a piece. Along with catharsis that flushes down the toilet. Projections and fragments, assemble only in the viewers. »Sexy Straight White People« is a theatrical performance about the power of gender identities. vT.corp challenge habits of seeing, living and sex, to question the ways of life and forms of love of the heteronormative mainstream.
