SUSANNE LINKE: SCHRITTE VERFOLGEN
Susanne Linke reconstructs and reconquers her most personal solo "Schritte verfolgen": She now distributes the process of the protagonist's development between four dancers in her piece. Out of that comes a biography of the body, which also narrates of the continual contradiction between self-doubt and the desire to portray something. But also from the process of the ageing as an experience of physical changes and as a liberating act of maturing. At the same time 'Schritte verfolgen' touches on a continual theme of Dance: "perpetual" youth and bodily vitality.

It will be premiered on February 16th and17th in PACT Zollverein, Essen.

It is a coproduction of The.Lab art & media, PACT Zollverein and Théâtre Le Phénix, Valencienne, supported by Kulturstiftung des Bundes and Kulturstiftung NRW.
