RauschKörper: Dance piece for teenagers from 14 years
RauschKörper thematizes the allure of intoxication, but also the decay of body and soul through drugs. Through improvisation and choreography, the performers find their own approach to the theme and implement these experiences through contemporary dance, breakdance and music. The portrayal of the everyday life of young people is also part of the piece, as well as original sound interviews from the research work of drug experience reports. This creates a projection and acoustic landscape for encounters, dance dialogues and confrontations, musically commented with an e-cello and a loop station.
How high is the price one pays when one can no longer perform without a foreign substance, when one can no longer survive without it? And how does the outside world react when theories meet personal fates?
