| citizens´ rebellion in times of crisis. battlefield. city. street. war camp. an oppressed class. the dawn of democracy at the beginning of the roman republic. riots demanding bread, now in a former bread factory: battle scenes, entertainment, tap dance. metal taps on concrete. shakespeare's «coriolanus» (1607/08) with commentaries from mao to agamben, in dance. the play of shakespeare where the people turns into an agent of history. a political play: speech as weapon. speech against bodies. bodies revolting against speech. choreographies with and around the spectator. 6 actors and a tap dance chorus set the room into rhythm - „nothing less than a magic moment“, as «der standard» put it. first shown in 2007 at the remise breitensee, a space of impressing martial force, the production is now restaged and transfered to the ankerbrot factory: with a new spatial concept, a new choreography, and a partly new cast and translation. |
