SCH!

Ioannis Mandafounis

2024/25 Tanz Familie Dresden Frankfurt Dance Company

With ‘SCH!’, the Dresden Frankfurt Dance Company presents a dance performance for everyone aged 8 and over that is anything but quiet. 

Two dancers behaving strangely. They talk incessantly and incomprehensibly. Where does their story come from? They describe an imaginary world, first with language, then more and more with their bodies. They constantly do many things at once and at the same time refer to their surroundings again and again. The language becomes whispering, shouting, singing, rhythm and music.

‘Sh!’ is danced by two dancers from Regionteater Väst. This is Sweden’s largest touring institution for performing arts for young audiences and is one of the country’s largest dance and theatre producers. Regionteater Väst creates accessible and challenging performances aimed primarily at people between the ages of 6 and 16.

Duration: 40 min., the performance will be followed by a free workshop on stage
