Hannah Shakti Bühler

Staatstheater Darmstadt

Based on her research “Dances between Order and Disorder”, the Frankfurt-based choreographer and dance professor Hannah Shakti Bühler, together with Simon Mayer, deals with the following topics in her new creation “Choreomaniacs, Cyborgs and other Monsters” (AT): individual bodies as a medium of resistance, collective dance phenomena as a medium of liberation, ecstasy and disciplining of the body. Under the term “Choreomaniacs”, historical phenomena such as the dancing bodies of medieval dance mania or so-called “tarantata” from the southern Italian rituals of tarantism are examined in the context of today's cyborg culture. “Choreomaniacs, Cyborgs and other Monsters” will be shown as a guest performance in Darmstadt in March.
