Solo for Boy

Series Global Bodies | Sasha Amaya (Berlin/Kanada)  

14 – 15 Nov 2025 | Global BodiesDance / performance

A young man stands alone on stage. No words, no set – only the body speaks. In Solo for Boy, a quiet, intense portrait unfolds from this simplicity. How do white, Western-influenced male bodies move? What historical images of male beauty do we carry within us?

Sasha Amaya draws inspiration from visual traditions in art history and fashion from 1800 to the present day. Between grace and tension, control and release, the dancer pushes his boundaries. From sensuality and tenderness to excess – a multifaceted portrait full of contradictions emerges. Solo for Boy offers a poetic and at the same time political perspective on masculinity, identity, and desire.

After the show on Fri Nov 14: Talk with the artits

With Global Bodies, fabrik Potsdam opens its doors to the perspectives and artistic expressions of dance from around the world. Pulsating rhythms, political choreographies or poetic imagery reveal dance as a universal language that connects people and addresses contemporary issues.
