Drei Frauen mit unterschiedlichen Geschichten und Herk\u00fcnften erforschen auf Stelzen tanzend verschiedene Facetten von Beziehungen, von der fl\u00fcchtigen Bekanntschaft \u00fcber Konflikte bis hin zu echter Verbundenheit. Das St\u00fcck bewegt sich zwischen Leichtigkeit und Dramatik, zwischen Ritual und Rasanz, zwischen Spannung und Stille. Raum, Abstand und physischer Kontakt spielen eine gro\u00dfe Rolle und die T\u00e4nzerinnen entdecken sich selbst in immer wieder neuen Konstellationen, in denen sich die Zuschauenden wiederfinden k\u00f6nnen. Die Stelzen symbolisieren dabei die Zerbrechlichkeit und Unbest\u00e4ndigkeit des menschlichen Seins in einer Welt voller Gegens\u00e4tze und Herausforderungen.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p align=\"left\"><span style=\"font-family: Times New Roman, serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\">DisTouched ist eine Performance mit Humor und Tiefgang, die das Publikum ber\u00fchrt und <\/span><\/span><span style=\"font-family: Times New Roman, serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\">zum Nachdenken anregt.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p align=\"left\"><span style=\"font-family: Times New Roman, serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\"><b>Sprache: <\/b>Nonverbal<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p align=\"left\"><span style=\"font-family: Times New Roman, serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\"><strong>Konzept, Choreografie &amp; Performance:<\/strong> Esther Geyer, Clara Gracia &amp; Anna Vilhelmiina <\/span><\/span><span style=\"font-family: Times New Roman, serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\">Peltola<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p align=\"left\"><span style=\"font-family: Times New Roman, serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\"><strong>Musik:<\/strong> Juli\u00e1n Blanco<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p align=\"left\"><span style=\"font-family: Times New Roman, serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\"><strong>Kost\u00fcme:<\/strong> DANZANK\u00d3 Collective, Anna Vilhelmiina Peltola &amp; Laila Rosato<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p align=\"left\"><span style=\"font-family: Times New Roman, serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\"><strong>External eye:<\/strong> Jefferson Perreira da Silva<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p align=\"left\"><span style=\"font-family: Times New Roman, serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\"><b>Website\/IG\/FB: <\/b><a href=\"https:\/\/danzanko.com\">https:\/\/danzanko.com<\/a> \/\u00a0 <\/span><\/span><span style=\"font-family: Times New Roman, serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/danzanko.collective\">@danzanko.collective<\/a>\u00a0 \/ <\/span><\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/61558743982422\"><span style=\"font-family: Times New Roman, serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\">FB<\/span><\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<p align=\"left\"><span style=\"font-family: Times New Roman, serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\"><strong>Biographie:<\/strong> Das Stelzen-Tanz-Kollektiv DANZANK\u00d3 wurde von Esther Geyer (DE\/ES), Clara Gracia <\/span><\/span><span style=\"font-family: Times New Roman, serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\">(ES) und Anna Vilhelmiina Peltola (FIN) im Jahr 2020 gegr\u00fcndet.\u00a0<\/span><\/span><span style=\"font-family: Times New Roman, serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\">Die drei Performerinnen arbeiten seit vielen Jahren im zeitgen\u00f6ssischen Tanz sowie im <\/span><\/span><span style=\"font-family: Times New Roman, serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\">Stra\u00dfen- und ortsspezifischen Theater \u2013 mit und ohne Stelzen.
