Falling. From the stairs or from grace.
The works of choreographer Tilman O'Donnell transcend genre boundaries. Between choreographic sculpture, art in motion, dynamic object sculpture and kinetic composition, dancers change the perception of people, relationships and space through their versatile orientation.
Archetypes become material, objects become figures. Bodies measure spaces and relationships differently. O'Donnell's choreographies are characterized by precision, subtle humour and playfulness.
For this commissioned choreography, the German-American takes up the seasonal theme of love and develops a piece about the act of falling. Inspired by the body morphology of sculptor Erwin Wurm, pop and video art and the movement principles of dance pioneer Steve Paxton, O'Donnell creates a piece about falling - in life, in love and beyond.
Digital book table
Together with the dramaturgy department, the Basel Kulturhaus Bider & Tanner has been curating the book table for our plays for many years. Now this selection of books, CDs, DVDs, catalogues and sheet music is available at any time in the online shop. It's worth browsing regularly.

O'Donnell picks up the dancers where their respective creative fantasies lie and composes the figures and their themes into a scenic picture of movement, bodies and forms. A successful dance ode to falling and winning.
Every kind of falling and dropping is presented in a multicolored and intertwined way.The troupe throws familiar perspectives overboard with great enthusiasm and individual scenes, such as Jan Chris Pollert's remarkable solo with a shiny gold down jacket, are likely to go down in Basel dance history.
