Ten young dancers quietly follow the trail of flamenco in Elio Gervasi’s group choreography, searching for a balance between the individual and the collective. In a frenzy, passion unites with self-determination, political posturing with street dance. The starting point of two steps back are spontaneous messages of the performers that are painted like graffiti on the stage walls. To live music oscillating between guitar solos and abstract drones, the group explores its own collectivity and looks for the personal freedoms of the individual. In the course of the piece various alliances and overlaps are emerging between the bodies and spatial dimensions which do not (want to) allow a way out of the collective but at the same time offer ever new in-between spaces.

A production of the Tanz Company Gervasi in cooperation with the Tanz Quartier Wien. Supported by the Wien Kultur (MA7) and the Austrian Ministry for Arts, Culture, the Civil Service and Sport (BMKOES).
