Kassel in trance fever: premiere enthusiastically in the State Theater!

Things will be particularly exciting in Kassel today, because the State Theater is inviting you to the dance series “Let’s talk about trance”. The focus of this series is how the state of trance can affect the audience. The fourth piece entitled “Transmuted symphony” celebrated its premiere on Friday. With her creative approach, choreographer Andrea Peña has taken viewers into a world of movement and emotions. It is important that those present are not afraid of naked bodies and sweat - pure life is celebrated here, as hr2.de reports.

The piece has a special appeal and is part of a series that stimulates thought and at the same time invites active participation. Using a mix of dance, music and artistic expression, the audience is taken on a journey into the state of trance that takes place both internally and externally. The program is also broadcast on hr2-kultur and brings the artistic experiences directly into the living room.

Dance theater in a class of its own

But that's not all! The Kassel State Theater continues to focus on innovative dance productions. The dance theater “fin de siècle” will have its premiere on Saturday, November 2nd. Led by renowned choreographers Lenka Vagnerová and Johannes Wieland, this production will captivate viewers with powerful themes. Vagnerová, known for her examination of existential questions and the relationship between humans and nature, addresses, among other things, decadence through characters such as vampires and Medusa in her piece. Wieland, on the other hand, uses his work to make people think about the disintegration of decisions and the zero point of history. This combination promises an exciting and profound examination of human existence, according to the Nordhessen-Journal.

The stage is designed by Sibylle Pfeiffer, while Evelyn Schönwald provides the colorful costumes. The piece is musically accompanied by sound design by Donato Deliano and dramaturgically supported by Thomaspeter Goergen. The ensemble includes numerous talented dancers who express their creativity and passion for the art.

Contemporary dance in focus

In addition to the dance series and the performances at the State Theater, there is a current overview of trends and developments in contemporary dance, which is also examined scientifically. The volume "Body - Concepts - Cultures. An inventory" offers exciting insights into narrative forms, community dance and the use of media in dance. Five experts provide valuable insights in their essays and are therefore available to audiences interested in dance and the scientific community, as can be read on transcript-verlag.de.

So it's going to be exciting in Kassel: innovative dance performances and in-depth discussions about contemporary topics in the art of dance invite all dance enthusiasts to delve into the world of dance and gain new perspectives. Mark the dates in your calendar and enjoy the art that the State Theater has to offer!
