Dämmer[blau]

2022

Three dancers sing, move, dance and play with the bridge, on the bridge and about the bridge in the twilight of sunrise and sunset.
Dämmer[blau] is dance performance by Mona Louisa-Melinka Hempel & friends, performed at dawn and dusk on the Probsteig Bridge (Leipzig, Germany).
In the twilight of the sunrise in the early morning and the sunset in the late evening, details seem out of place, our senses are sharpened, the time has stopped.
In these circumstances, we set out in search of the magical details of everyday life and experience how how our neurons, nerve endings, and body chemicals respond to them.
Where is the physicality of an enthusiastic YES?
Where is the physicality of pebble sounds?
Starting from the transition point “Probsteisteg” on the former site of the provost of the Augustinian monastery St. Thomas (13th century) and the modern reinforced concrete swing bridge construction with pebbles and sharp curves, this performance considers how the physicality of Feelings and reactions can be resistant and in solidarity with the participants.
