DANCE FOR ONE – BIRTHDAY GALA FOR SUSANNE LINKE)
- Performance Film programme
- Sat 19.06.04 20:30 h
Susanne Linke's autobiography unites German dance tradition with the development of modern dance theatre. Having trained with Mary Wigman in Berlin and at the Folkwang Academy in Essen, she rapidly gained international recognition with her work and established herself as a multi-award winning dance theatre protagonist, performer and choreographer. On the occasion of Susanne Linke's 60th birthday, The.Lab art & media Berlin host a celebratory evening in her honour. Following a film presentation offering an insight into Susa's prolific artistic career, many of her friends and past and present colleagues from the world of dance will take part in a birthday Gala performance.
»... Linke, who alongside Pina Bausch and Reinhild Hoffmann counts amongst the icons of German Dance Theatre, truly masters space and time. With elegant steps, with succinct but fully rounded arm gestures, she's patently aware of how to command the stage: This is her place...« Wiebke Hüster, Stuttgarter Zeitung, 6/2003
