HERZrasen
2024
Linden-Museum Stuttgart (Germany)
An invitation to dialogue - without judgement - but with pleasure and humour: In this piece, we playfully show how to deal with various body images. Four dancers from different dance styles - from urban dance to contemporary dance - enter into dialogue with each other. They approach each other, “battle”, touch or exclude each other.
A dance performance for ages 14 and up.

Historic Water Reservoir Stuttgart-East (Germany)
Future, past and present and everything in between. Intersections, encounters between people and moments that need to be preserved.
The piece questions our social behaviour in times like these, in which we strive for human freedom and seek new ways of living and togetherness, while at the same time preserving our individuality and togetherness. Is the goal the path? Or can we allow ourselves to freely look around, choose and express our true, honest feelings and what we really think without fear of the outcome?
Counter Balance is a unique collaboration between dancers from Produktionszentrum Tanz + Performance and musicians from Stuttgart's independent music scene. Choreographer Lior Lev, conductor Viktoriia Vitrenko and composer Daniel Alcheh are creating an inspiring piece for the public space as part of the 20th anniversary of Produktionszentrum Tanz + Performance.
