Event link

local dancing invites you to dance local dances for pleasure, accompanied by live keyboard music in Offenbach, Wiesbaden and Frankfurt. Using queer transmission and speculative instant tradition as methods, we imagine popular group dances that may have travelled through time and became non-binary and unpaired. Detached from a national narrative, the dances pretend to be local wherever they are. They are all proposals of how to come together in dancing, and how the repetition and routine of a circular choreography can hold us.
