The BewegGrund association, which promotes inclusive dance for people with and without disabilities, presents two new short pieces. The performative audio play «Was ich schon immer mal auf der Bühne machen wollte» (What I’ve always wanted to do on stage) translates a stage dream of young adults into surreal images. «gliich |anders: variiert» brings live music and performers of various ages and physical abilities to the stage. Supposedly firmly set structures about how to dance and who dances are exposed, questioned and reframed.
The BewegGrund association has been promoting inclusive dance for 20 years: combining dancers with and without disabilities. Cie BewegGrund creates professional stage pieces and amateur productions. Through its ongoing work, BewegGrund has achieved national and international recognition and has unique experience and expertise gained in both artistic and educational fields. In their inclusive stage work, the dancers with disabilities offer new role models and question the myth of the perfect body, which still dominates dance and the performing arts to this day.
