WALK+TALK
FRÉDÉRIC GIES & ANNA KOCH
KULTURHUSET STADSTEATERN
Dates: 6 dec kl 17.30
Length: Ca 90 min
Vienna-based Philipp Gehmacher grew tired of listening to theorists discussing choreographers’ work and movements. Instead, he took the initiative to create Walk + Talk, a sort of performance and lecture rolled into one. On stage, in front of the audience, the artists talk while moving-in other words choreographing themselves as they go, providing unique insight into their special way of working. Participating at Kulturhuset Stadsteatern are Phillipp Gehmacher, Anna Koch, Frédéric Gies and Tove Sahlin.

Let’s imagine a futuristic social dance. The dance would be the outcome of the physical dialogue between the dancers. This physical dialogue would be made of continuous negotiations between different individual choices made within the group. It would demand that each individual listens to the others’ impulses in the most sensitive way and evaluates, second by second, how to respond to it. If one voice within the group would be ignored, isolated or repressed, this would cause a tension that would jeopardize the process of the whole. As in the butterfly effect in chaos theory, each singular move would have an effect on the whole community. Let’s imagine that this dance would be a political practice.
Seven Thirty in Thights is the outcome of several research residences and workshops, involving different groups of dancers, which took place in Zagreb, Stockholm, Alexandria and Berlin. Two previous versions of the piece were presented in Zagreb and in Alexandria in 2011.
In addition to the piece, the audience can attend a workshop in which some of the dances of the piece are transmitted and practiced together, as well as a lecture by Sylvie Tissot, professor of political sciences, on her book “De bons voisins” (“good neighboors”), which examines strategies of social distinction in urban elites.
The score of the piece will be published on this website.
