SYNOPSIS

After “The Age of Aquarium” (2019) and “Let it Rain” (2020), NADINE GERSPACHER brings the most audacious and astounding conclusion to her trilogy: “NON-UPGRADED EXISTENCE”: 

A family portrays the breathtaking search for a better future, putting the audience through the sharpest emotional shifts: from the cheerful laughs of a young daughter to the violent escalations of arguments be- tween the progenitors. 

The family of five unleashes its deepest longings to bring its search for happiness – and humanity – through an appealing dance theater piece filled with poetry.

“Nadine Gerspacher does not want to dare the hard ending. And yet strong images stick, the wild round of danced metaphors and the presence on stage has an intense effect. Very long and intense applause in the well-filled Roxy for an extraordinary international dance theater event in the Tanzlabor.”
