To stumble or to stagger, that is the question. In his new work, choreographer Tilman O'Donnell explores the experience of letting go, quite literally falling—be it from the stairs or from grace. O'Donnell's choreographies combine structural rigor with subtle humor. Repeatedly inspired by the body morphology in Erwin Wurm's sculptural works and the movement principles of American dance pioneer Steve Paxton, he creates studies on the perception of movement and form. This opens up a horizon for connection with others, a space in which we might encounter love. It cannot be forced, nor can it be held on to.
Tickets are CHF 30-70.
