We are in a summer mood and ready to get some sand in our shoes (or between our toes). But before we’re taking our well-deserved summer break we would like to thank all of the wonderful artists, partners and collaborators for this past season! It was inspiring, exciting and absolutely wonderful to work with you […]
The latest co-production!
Premiere: 31. March 2022 // Wilhelma Theater, Stuttgart
It’s over. Over and done with. The decay of humanity, the remnants of humanity, the remnants of an age are bundled into a museum. The human body as it was, wanted to be and never has been. 2 dancers, 6 puppeteers and 2 musicians create a vision of the future and a memory at the same time. For the third and last production of our trilogy ›Der Fall Mensch‹ (The Case of Man) we are cooperating with the figure theatre course at the Stuttgart University of Performing Arts and Music. It will premiere at the Wilhelma Theatre on 31 March 2022.
The latest backsteinhaus production!
Next Show: 9. July 2022 // Baden-Württembergische Theatertage, Theater Heilbronn
›Climax‹ is the second piece in the series ›Der Fall Mensch‹ (The Case of Man). After ›Show down‹, this time guest choreographer Miroslav Kochanek (B/CZ) deals with the Anthropocene. Dancer Tegest Pecht-Guido (NL) explores transitions: the waning, the withering, the aging. And says goodbye to the end of this gloomy human age. The third part of the series ›Happy ending‹ will premiere at the Wilhelma Theater on March 31, 2022.

›Show down‹ is a solo for a human prototype and an entire ensemble’s collection of stories of our origin, newly narrating and retelling the story of incarnation. The ensemble dives into our past, learns and hides, searches for traces, imitates, dances, and invites you on a special ancestral path. And thus prepares the next forward role into another future.
