Since the beginning of May, three different groups of teenagers and young adults have been rehearsing for the dance project #Angels with three different choreographers. At the beginning of July, the three pieces will then be put together on the studio stage and performed four times in front of an audience. The starting point and inspiration for the project is Crystal Pite's ballet Angels' Atlas. In the ongoing rehearsal process, the artists and young people deal with the fleetingness, uniqueness and vulnerability of life. It is about questions like: What is actually really important to me? Do you believe in angels? How do I move safely through this crazy, unpredictable world? Answers are sought with one's own body, developed from within the group and carefully guided by the choreographers Mirjam Barakar, Bettina Holzhausen and Sonia Rocha, and turned into a piece. The Swiss guitarist and composer Philipp Schaufelberger develops the music to match the choreographic work of the three groups.
