We open the stage and leaf through the dance. Legends surround him. His changeable figure, this hasty traveler, is celebrated in song. The chroniclers draw from his inexhaustible source, the body, and write a new chapter in the book of movement.

Chronicles

Hessisches Staatstheater Wiesbaden

The Hessian State Ballet begins its season with an extraordinary double evening and a reunion with leading choreographers of the present: After the successful productions Timeless by Xie Xin and I'm afraid to forget your smile by Imre & Marne van Opstal, the Hessian State Ballet combines the dance positions of these currently groundbreaking choreographers in a double evening for the first time in Broken Bob . In their new creation I am Bob,the Dutch siblings Imre & Marne van Opstal create a choreographic network of identity through a close interweaving of music and text. Exploring the question of who Bob is, he stands as a placeholder for humanity itself. The dancers explore his essence in a large ensemble through the power of movements and their patterns. In doing so, the choreographic duo approaches the limits and possibilities of body and mind through dance.
