MARCH 17 | 3 PM | LIVE AUDIO DESCRIPTION & HAPTIC ACCESS TOUR
The Haptic Access Tour starts at 1.45 pm. Please register and reserve a headset at tickets@hebbel-am-ufer.de or +49 (0) 30 259004-27. Live audio description & Haptic Access Tour by Gravity Access Service Berlin*

An abrupt change of direction, a sudden interruption, a wink, passing glances, a fast-forward and a stutter  – FLUSH! Three performers move along or between five chipboard walls and expand everyday gestures into a spectacle of sensual slippy time. Erotic overtones and precise movement patterns in stop, slow and fast motion decouple subtexts and details of urban digital reality from their unambiguous narratives, only to present them in the next moment as oddly familiar.

NOTES FOR VISITORS
Strong fragrances and smells will be used. The show comprises sudden light changes involving flash and stroboscopic lights and moments with a total blackout. The audience area on the tribune is seated.  We recommend arriving early to select a suitable seat.

Sheena McGrandles is a dancer and choreographer living in Berlin. She works in various contexts including theatre/stage, education and independent art and culture projects. Her current group of works explores radical temporality as a means of detailed exploration and exaggeration of movement. Her works create hyper-real, multi-narrative and humorous moving landscapes. Sheena presents her works nationally and internationally, including London (The Place), Amsterdam (something raw), Berlin (Sophiensæle), Mexico City (Museo Universitario Del Chopo), Los Angeles (PSSST). With Figured, Sheena McGrandles was invited to the Tanzplattform 2020.The piece FLUSH was shown at the TANZPLATTFORM 2022 in Berlin.
