In a revealing solo, Canadian choreographer Frédérick Gravel exposes layers of his psyche - revealing his own fears and unleashing the greedy monster within.

In the piece, which is both music theatre and dance performance, the audience itself becomes part of a living sound installation. Electronic sounds emanate from their own mobile phone loudspeakers, which change depending on the distance to the performers and merge into a single collective body of sound.

TO ALL emerging DANCE ARTISTS BASED IN BERLIN
Every new year, the Tanztage Berlin is not only the city's very first festival, it has also established itself nationally and internationally as an important platform for emerging dance artists since its founding in 1996. The next edition of Tanztage Berlin will once again take place under the artistic direction of Mateusz Szymanówka. The festival is currently planned for 5-21 January 2023 - however, the form as well as the exact date will depend on the constant reassessment of the pandemic. The festival offers emerging dance artists based in Berlin a framework for their new productions and revivals. The programme of the last two editions can be found at: https://tanztage-berlin.sophiensaele.com.

In an era of fake news and post-truths Störlaut searches for a form of non-verbal expression – real, direct and emotional. In a speculative, futuristic way this sound dance solo performance reinterprets the sound dances of Valeska Gert, a Berlin grotesque dancer of the politically unstable 1920s. Gert is considered to be the first sound dancer in the world. Jule Flierl completely absorbs her sound dances, roars, cackles, whimpers and squeaks, an articulation beyond today’s word capsules.
