Lust zum Tanzen
Künstlerischer Schwerpunkt? Our main focus as a team is our work with youth in various dance/theater projects. Geschichte + Hintergrund Our first project together was the result of a request to create some movement for a family concert at Theater Freiburg. That “concert” turned out to be our first complete dance piece,”Fast Forward”, involving 33 youth from the Freiburg area. Ziele? Teneriffa, 3 Wochen Vollpension! ... just kidding Considering the massive amount of time and energy that we invest into each project, we would love to see our work reaching a wider audience by either touring existing pieces, or by reproducing them in other cities. Projekte? Our current project, “Flokati”, is a musical depicting the world of insects living inside a thick-piled carpet. Future projects include two new pieces for Theater Freiburg in both the Kleines and Großes Haus for the season 2010 / 2011. Emma continues to choreograph operas and teach for the Hochschule für Musik. Gary is currently dancing with PVC and K2, as well as choreographing for HeadFeedHands, Theater Pro, and Theater Heidelberg. Was wäre beinahe aus Ihnen geworden?
