22 and 23 June marks the first time that all four children’s and youth groups of Sasha Waltz & Guests’ dance company take the stage at Radialsystem. Children’s Dance Group 1 provide insight into research they undertook on the rhythm and power of the ocean in their piece "Water Dance". Following the success of last year’s "stimmen", the young performers in Dance Group 2 discover their playful connection to percussion in "Welleneffekt". In "Constantly becoming" (working title), Group 3 explore questions of identity, belonging, demarcation, and community. The showing ends with the teenagers and young adults of Group 4, who link questions concerning our responsibility in the world with the transformative potential of collective creativity in their new piece "NEXUS", which features live percussion and electronic beats.
