How did we become the adults we are today? What shaped our upbringing? Five adult performers look back on their youth and connect it with the young generation of today. On stage, they share memories of their youth and reflect on elements that have shaped them: How do uniforms, symbols, behaviours, rituals and their social class contribute to self-discovery? In ESTHER, the performers illuminate the nuanced relationship between these external and familial influences and explore the delicate balance between conformity and individuality.
Physical Introduction | 7.00 pm
Move, feel, experience! During the Physical Introduction you become active yourself - 30 to 45 minutes full of movement, relaxation and new perceptions. Feel dance in your own body and sensitise yourself for the upcoming piece. No previous knowledge necessary - just try it out!
This mediation format was developed as part of the MA CoDE programme at the University of Music and Performing Arts Frankfurt/Main.
