Programme

Keith Hennessy / Circo Zero

Turbulence (a dance about the economy)

Part of "Marx' Gespenster"

DancePerformance

English /  90min

In a collective process, Keith Hennessy and 15 performers have developed an experimental hybrid out of contemporary dance, performance-installation and political theatre. The production methods of the performance can be understood as a response to both economic as well as ecological crises. New members join in at each performance, risking their bodies and spirits. A temporary, queer micro-society emerges – with no clear beginning and an open end – in which hierarchies are being negotiated and played with.

Production: Circo Zero. Co-production: CounterPULSE, Regards et Mouvements. Made possible by the New England Foundation for the Arts National Dance Project, with lead funding from the Doris Duke Charitable Foundation and additional funding from the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation, the MetLife Foundation, and the National Endowment for the Arts. Additional funding includes Zellerbach Family Foundation, the New Stages in Dance grant, the SF Arts Commission OPG and 126 individual donors.
