XOXO (14+)

Sebastian Matthias (Berlin)  

05 – 07 Dec 2019 | Explore dance – Dance for young audience Young dance

How does it feel when someone comes so close to me that I can feel his breath? Should I stay or should I go? What does it actually mean to be close to someone?

Uncertainty, excitement and doubts sometimes stand in the way of the desire to explore other bodies. Far away from sexualized images on the Internet, xoxo asks what it means to desire another body and encourages self-determined exchange of feelings. Three contemporary dancers and one musician explore with the audience body spaces in which people communicate with each other, find each other and discover touches, individual shelters and different forms of intimacy.
