Avessos

Choreography by Marcos Abranches

‘Avessos’ (“inside out“) is the new work by the Brazilian dancer and choreographer Marcos Abranches – currently Artist-in-Residence at Staatstheater Darmstadt. For this solo performance he explores the most varied styles and artistic forms including DanceAbility, butoh, contact improvisation, cinema, photography, fashion, music and somatic techniques like Feldenkrais.

DanceAbility is a method of dance, movement and non-verbal communcation. It integrates people with and without disabilities and is based on the principle of inclusion instead of isolation.

Japanese butoh is a dance that upsets conventions. Butoh aims to free itself from accustomed forms of physicality and thinking and to achieve a new kind of presence through improvisation and embodiment. Contact improvisation focusses, among other things, on transferring weight: on holding and being held.

‘Avessos’ invites its audience to enter a kaleidoscope of expressive forms and to experience a poignant solo.

On Sunday, 10.11. a “Meet the Artists” takes place after the performance.
