Programme

Voetvolk / Lisbeth Gruwez

The Sea Within

Duration 70 min

Lisbeth Gruwez has made a name for herself with unusual, precise choreographies. In her new piece, “The Sea Within,” the Belgian dancer and choreographer no longer wishes to bring order into chaos but to allow chaos to create its own order. Together with the composer and musician Maarten Van Cauwenberghe, Gruwez founded the collective Voetvolk, which was invited to Tanz im August in 2016. The group now returns with its latest work, a contemporary ritual in which the ‘we’ embraces the ‘I’ and ten female dancers dissolve into a large, breathing landscape.

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.
