EINBLICKE (2021)

View through the keyhole

The curtain falls, and the performance begins. The audience follows the action taking place on the stage, experiences ups and downs, and in the end, there is applause and a curtain call. But how does a dance piece actually take shape? Which moments influence the path to the goal?

The curtain falls, and the performance begins. The audience follows the action taking place on the stage, experiences ups and downs, and in the end, there is applause and a curtain call. But how does a dance piece actually take shape? Which moments influence the path to the goal?

Work-in-progress formats provide a glimpse into the production of a new piece. But are these free from the pressure of becoming a finished stage piece? What effort and inspiration go into an intensive rehearsal phase? When the bodies both of the choreographers and some of the dancers do not conform to idealized body norms, do differences arise in the working process?

EINBLICKE | INSIGHTS invites you to peer through the keyhole of the rehearsal stage and dive into the work of the company. Choreographers Markéta Stránská and Alessandro Schiattarella unleash different forces in the first installment of EINBLICKE, and the audience can experience two intensive research processes. The format becomes part of the promising but also fragile moment of the creation of a new work. Detached from the pressures of production and premiere, FORWARD DANCE COMPANY shares its research space with the public.
