Anger, android, ritual. Motherhood. In her latest piece ELECTRAS , choreographer Reut Shemesh and her team conjure up the figure of the mother as a mixture of dragon, cyborg and nurturer: fierce and resilient, fearless and often tired. A body full of contradictions: exhausted and yet unstoppable, fragile and yet unyielding.rage.

The world premiere of ELECTRAS will take place on Fri 21.11. at tanzhaus nrw.
