Description

Stumbles is a contemporary dance performance that explores the notion of stumbling as a physical, emotional, and historical process that reveals our fragility and vulnerability.

Through movement and sound, two dancers and two musicians create a world, in which the loss of balance and the ongoing effort to regain it forms the central theme. Circular movements, spiral pathways, and weight shifts reflect the cyclical nature of time: the body remembers, the past returns, and the stage transforms into a space where today becomes tomorrow and yesterday.

The performance encourages us to remain standing in a world that is constantly changing. It serves as a reminder that balance is not a solitary achievement but the result of solidarity and interaction with others. It is a journey from the little stumbles of movement to the great, existential falters that shape our memory, our identity, and our collective history.
