25.8. ● Meet the Artist
Duration 60 min
In “LOYALTY”, Los Angeles and Berlin-based choreographer Adam Linder returns to ballet with a fresh take on its traditional vocabulary. Linder dives into the signature aspects of the genre – corps-de-ballet formations, theatrical imagery and partnering – reworking them with five world-class dancers. Performed in three acts and set to the music of the British avant-garde band Coil, this new approach to ballet interweaves virtuosity, theatricality and abstraction. Linder creates a hybridized physicality that is crude yet finessed, dark yet light and curiously both animal and human.

Latest information for arrival:
There is currently a construction site on Hallesches Ufer between Wilhelmstraße and Möckernbrücke underground station. There is a divided replacement route for pedestrians (right) and cyclists (left), which are separated by a yellow ground line. The carriageway is narrowed to one lane.
Travelling to HAU2 via U Hallesches Tor:
If you are coming from Hallesches Tor underground station, you will have to use an alternative footpath from Wilhelmstraße / Hallesches Ufer junction, which is separated from the carriageway by a construction fence – the actual footpath is currently closed. Please note: the alternative route is also used by cyclists. Pedestrians should keep to the right. We therefore currently recommend that visually impaired or blind visitors come to the HAU with an accompanying person.
Arrival HAU2 via U Möckernbrücke:
When you leave Möckernbrücke underground station, please stay on the footpath on the canal side until you reach Hallesches Ufer / Großbeerenstraße junction – the opposite side is currently closed due to construction work.
