Potsdamer Tanztage 2026 – DANTE

In the organizer's words:

In DANTE, three lost souls meet on a foggy odyssey of songs, text fragments and restrained dance. After 37 hours and 3 minutes and Merkurius, Gunilla Heilborn continues her work about time, doubt and the unknown - in her unmistakable style of dry humor and delicate poetry.

The starting point is Heilborn's unsuccessful trip to Florence. In search of Dante - and a bygone era - she gets lost among groups of tourists in the city's narrow alleyways. "Some people just don't want the Middle Ages to end." Past and present overlap in an unconventional reading of Dante's eternal questions. Gunilla Heilborn creates her very own Divina Commedia: There are no answers, but all the more questions. But she promises: Like all comedies, DANTE starts badly - and ends well...
