About the venue:
RADIALSYSTEM V
In September 2006, RADIALSYSTEM V was opened as a new creative space for the arts in Berlin. Formerly a turn of the century pumping station for the Berlin Wasserwerke (Berlin Water Services), RADIALSYSTEM V – situated in the urban centre of Berlin between Friedrichshain, Mitte and Kreuzberg – currently functions as a cultural centre where new ideas 'radiate' out in all directions, attracting artists and the public from within as well as beyond the city limits of Berlin.
About the performance:
'Dancing to the End'
Dancing to the End deals with the phenomena of death and its byproduct agony, inspired by the art of iconography. The project started first in Bangkok 2013 and traveled to different cities around the world. In each city, a version of the performance gets locally adapted in relation to the performers’ personal, national, cultural heritages and system of believes. Dancing to the End is a mix of contemporary dance, theater and pop culture. It is an intricate interplay between the opposites sense-nonsense, possible-impossible, powerful-powerless, as well as a place where venerability, trash, poetic and humoristic moments are revealed all at once.
