Out of the opera houses and into the city: on 26 August 2022 from 6 p.m. the Staatsballett Berlin will once again be dancing on an excursion boat on the Spree between the House of World Cultures and the Mühlendammschleuse. Free of charge and open to the public, the dancers and their skills can be experienced on the ship from the riverbank.
In constant movement, a programme is presented between Tiergarten and Mitte that repeats itself cyclically. Excerpts from SCHWANENSEE are as much a part of it as the successful choreography HALF LIFE by Sharon Eyal. In addition, works by company members will be on show. RUTHLESS by Pauline Voisard as well as FOLLOW THE PATH by Arshak Ghalumyan are creations and can therefore be seen for the first time. An excerpt from THIS TOO SHALL PASS by Vivian Assal Koohnavard, which was already shown as part of LAB_WORKS 2022, rounds off the programme.
Further highlights of the season are the premieres of EK | EKMAN on 16 February 2023 at the Deutsche Oper Berlin, MESSA DA REQUIEM by Christian Spuck on 14 April 2023 at the Deutsche Oper Berlin and STRAWINSKY on 10 June 2022 at the Staatsoper Unter den Linden.
