Was geht, Erdling?

Caroline Beach & Saida Makhmudzade

2024/25 Watch Out Tanz Familie

Two travelers from outer space make a stop on Earth and have a mission: to find out what it means to be human. They have already gathered a few facts: for example, that things like time and money exist. They have learned from animated series how humans move. But all the things they do seem strange; the way they speak sounds a bit wrong and the way they dress is somehow strange. A few questions remain, and not just for the aliens.

“What’s up, Earthling?” is a pop-up piece for everyone aged 8 and up and a humorous, playful attempt by the two choreographers and dancers Caroline Beach and Saida Makhmudzade to explore human habits.

Duration: ca. 40 min.
Language: German, little language
Suitable for everyone 6 years and older
