FORWARD DANCE COMPANY by LOFFT – DAS THEATER

The LOFFT will consolidate the initiated work strands of the mixed-abled FORWARD DANCE COMPANY. A special feature of the company's work is that a permanent ensemble of dancers and artistic project directors realizes productions with various nationally and internationally active choreographers. With the support of TANZPAKT Stadt-Land-Bund, the work of the company will be consolidated through new dance productions, research and guest performance cooperations. Plans include the revival of two works from 2021 and new productions ranging from short pieces to full-length choreographies to a site-specific performance at the monument to the Battle of the Nations in Leipzig. In addition, research and workshops on the social anchoring of the company's work as well as further education mediation modules for dancers with normative physicalities and the audience will take place.
