Choreographer

A single word creates images, colorful word chains, which in turn trigger melodies. The sound teases out a rhythm, elicits movement from the two dancers, and a choreography emerges. Together with a musician, the two explore the classroom and transform it into an imaginative space. What becomes of the sink in the corner, and does the table change when you lie under it?

"brand" looks into a future Europe that must live with the consequences of war and climate change. A scorched world opens up, a world in which rival sects fight over scarce resources, tightly controlled, devoid of any freedom. In the midst of this chaos: Maëlle, Koé, and Andrii, three flickering young people full of zest for life.


»brand« is a road movie: On the (forbidden) search for her childhood home, a place full of memories, Maëlle first encounters Koé, then Andrii. At night, as the earth cools, life explodes in the seemingly deserted city: the love between Maëlle, Koé, and Andrii is ecstatic, intoxicating, but also disturbing and tender. The approaching fires leave little time to process their feelings; catastrophe seems inevitable, until a fantastic, dramatic twist
conjures a glimmer of hope.

Weeds, wild herbs, crop plant companions... These are all other terms for weeds and they not only refer to the plants themselves, but also indicate the position of weeds: a subordinate one, an accompanying one. They are often overlooked, not allowed, removed, considered annoying or even poisoned. Yet weeds are a vital part of our ecosystem. And who actually decided that weeds are not beautiful and wanted? In the dance club under the direction of dancer and dramaturge Miriam Beike, the young people explore the resilience and potential of weeds. In weekly rehearsals, they discover their own bodies as a means of perception and expression. Together, they explore in movement where weeds break open surfaces and allow them to bloom and how intertwined they are. What does this mean when applied to the dancers and the entire group? Scenes and movement sequences are developed together, from which a dance piece is created over the course of the season, which is then performed on stage.
