In the form of a choreographic journey outside of representational theater spaces, the interdisciplinary project Terrestrial Transit questions the critical potential of improvisational practice.

In light of the strengthening of right-wing authoritarian politics and against the backdrop of political protests, especially in Hungary and Poland, the ensemble explores alternative modes of participation and collaboration, exchange, and storytelling.

“The evenings at DOCK 11 mark the end of their journey, which began in the Sophiensaele, continuing via the Brandenburg residence Ponderosa and Szczecin to the Polish Baltic Sea, and was accompanied by the filmmaker Stella Horta. In an installative and durational setting, dance improvisation, video, sound, autobiographical memories, and historical events flow into each other, opening up questions about the potential of improvisational practice, participation, and resistance.”
