Site-specific Tanzperformance
The focus was on the building’s hidden sounds and history—in search of direct connections between space, movement, and music.
What happens when you challenge a group of young dancers to climb a building that’s tilted on its side—or turned upside down? Or when they play with a theater’s stage technology as if it were an oversized musical instrument, or dance with a directional microphone to create the soundtrack for their own choreography?
Answers to these questions are provided by the new site-specific performance, which transforms the Academy of Arts building itself into a living instrument.
The performances will take place on July 18 and 19.
- Sat., July 18, 8:00 p.m.
- Sun., July 19, 6:00 p.m.
- Venue: Academy of Arts (Hanseatenweg 10, 10557 Berlin)
Tickets - 19 €.
Admission is free for visitors under 18—however, a ticket priced at 0 € must be booked in advance on the website https://voices.clsx.de/de/event/run-time-anomaly.
