<p>In dem neuen Tanzstück von Helena Waldmann thematisiert sie  das alltägliche Glücksempfinden und überzieht es ins Unermessliche indem sie dem Glück eine passende Bühne schenkt. Eine prunkvolle Manege voll Feierlichkeit. Nach dem Motto &#8220;Ein bisschen Wahnsinn tut immer gut&#8221; lässt die Tanzregisseurin ihr vier Protagonisten die „Ups and Downs&#8221; einer Emotions-Achterbahnfahrt durchleben mit an Irrsinn grenzender Schonungslosigkeit. In Überschriften aufgegliedert wird zeitlich versetzt die darauf folgende Gemütsbewegung auf die Minute genau angekündigt. Dabei handelt es sich um eine ganze Bandbreite von extremen Gefühlen zwischen katastrophalste Abstürze und eindrucksvollen Höhenflügen. Ein atemberaubender André Soares, der dem jungen Kinski erschreckend ähnelt und sich mit rollenden Augen wahnsinnig in Rage tanzt, verrückt und umwerfend komisch, ein sehr beherrschter Moo Kim, der während des Stücks immer mehr seine Fasson verliert und am Ende total entgleist, sowie ein sehr natürlicher und in seiner Ehrlichkeit eindrucksvoller Tobias M. Draeger und „last but not least&#8221; die extrem souveräne Steptänzerin Brit Rodemund verwandeln die Darbietung in ein ausgesprochenes Glückstück.</p>

<p><strong>Konzept und Choreographie    Helena Waldmann</strong><br />
Tanz:    André Soares, Brit Rodemund, Moo Kim und Tobias M. Draeger<br />
Dramaturgie und Stückentwicklung:    Dunja Funke<br />
Licht:    Herbert Cybulska<br />
Bühne:    Jochen Sauer<br />

Choreographische Mitarbeit:    Bernardo Colomar</p>
<p><strong>15./16.Dezember 2011 jeweils um 19.30Uhr im Radialsystem</strong></p>
<p>Dieses Nie-glücklich-sein. Auch nie wirklich unglücklich. Euphorie? Gibt&#8217;s wohl nur um den Preis einer kleinen Depression. Glück, sagte Adorno, entfaltet sich erst am aufgehobenen Leid. Wenn wir nie unglücklich sind, keine Schmerzen haben, an nichts leiden, können wir Glück auch nicht empfinden.</p>
<p>&#8220;Ein bisschen Wahnsinn tut immer gut&#8221;, findet Helena Waldmann. In &#8220;GlückStück&#8221; lässt die Berliner Tanzregisseurin ihre vier Protagonisten - u.a. die &#8220;Tänzerin des Jahres 2011&#8243; der Zeitschrift &#8220;tanz&#8221;, Brit Rodemund - an den Verhältnissen reißen, die sonst das Leben im Mittelbereich stets bloß einbetonieren.<span id="more-2231"></span></p>
<p>Helena Waldmanns Inszenierung - auf kleinstem Raum, mit furioser Energie - zeigt die ganze Bandbreite zwischen Absturz und Höhenflug, sie arbeitet gegen das Unglück der Angst: Angst vor dem Überschreiten des angeblich Maßvollen, dem Zerschreddern einer behaupteten Normalität, dem Abwerfen verordneten Ruhigseins. Ihr Glück ist das der Rebellion und das der Würde, über sich selbst zu bestimmen.</p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">Kentaro  ist Tänzer, Choreograf, DJ und Autor und zählt zurzeit zu den zentralen  Figuren der japanischen HipHop-Tanzszene. Der in Tokio beheimatete  Künstler wurde in der aktuellen Ausgabe des Jahrbuchs der  Fachzeitschrift „tanz“ als einer der „Hoffnungsträger des Jahres 2011“  hervorgehoben und ist ausgezogen, den HipHop in Japan salonfähig zu  machen. Virtuos und verspielt baut er in seinen mittlerweile  preisgekrönten Stücken, von denen eines bereits im Herbst 2010 im  tanzhaus nrw zu sehen war, einen eigenen Kosmos aus musikalischen und  tänzerischen Verweisen auf. Das Gruppenstück „Send it, Mr. Monster“ ist  eine verrätselte Studie über die Unmöglichkeit, die Gegenwart zu  verstehen, und vereint sieben Tänzer zwischen zeitgenössischem Tanz und  HipHop. In dem Solo „Do you know a friend of fate?“ nimmt Kentaro eigene  Kindheitserinnerungen als Ausgangspunkt. Zu selbst komponierten Beats  entwickelt der B-Boy in Anorak, weiter Hose und mit Rucksack seine  HipHop-Moves. Nach und nach entledigt er sich des ganzen Ballasts, erst  der Rucksack, dann der Anorak. Zu Klängen, die an traditionelle  japanische Musik erinnern, nimmt sein Tanz zunehmend zeitgenössische  Elemente auf. Weiche Bewegungen wechseln mit sich wiederholenden  Bewegungsmustern, die bildstarke Bewegungssprache nutzt theatrale  Momente.</p>
<p>„Die Tokyo Electrock Stairs geben der auf Klubs und wenige  öffentliche Plätze beschränkten HipHop-Kultur Japans auch in der  Tanzszene eine Stimme. Mit erstaunlichem Erfolg.“</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">Akiko Tachiki im Jahrbuch der Fachzeitschrift „tanz“ 2011</p>

<p>Check Your Body at the Door is a film about remarkable underground House dancers and dancing in NYC’s golden decade, the 1990s. Featuring interviews and rare dance footage with legendary House dancers, the film follows a group of master free-stylists to the clubs, at their jobs and in their everyday lives. In discussing ideas and topics important them, the dancers – including the late Vogueing legend Willi Ninja &#8212; shape the script and narrative. Filmed on location and in a studio against a white background, in silhouette or in light pools, the one-hour documentary contextualizes a wide variety of House dance forms and answers: What did House dancing look like?  Who were the dancers?  Why did they dance?</p>

<p style="text-align: left;">© Piero Chuissi</p>
<p>Yui Kawaguchi, Choreographin und Tänzerin, kommt ursprünglich aus Japan und lebt seit 2005 in Berlin. Seitdem hat sie in zahlreichen Produktionen mitgewirkt, wie z.B. bei Ismael Ivo, Helena Waldmann, der Pianistin Aki Takase und aktuell bei „Red Bull Flying Bach&#8221; von Christoph Hagel und den Flying Steps. In ihrer neuen eigenen Produktion „Bubble Boxing&#8221; ist der zentrale Gegenstand eine Sprechblase, die zwischen zwei Menschen im Raum steht. <span id="more-2170"></span>Sprechblasen haben ja die Funktion sowohl Gedankengänge als auch Ausgesprochenes unmissverständlich  zum Ausdruck zu bringen. So eindeutig wie in Comics werden die Kommunikationsversuche der beiden sich annähernden Personen in diesem Stück leider nicht übersetzt. Das Comicgenre aber wird für Bubble Boxing durchaus aufgenommen in Form einer teils slapstickartigen Bewegungssprache und einem sehr überzogenen Mienenspiel. Mit Hilfe von  zeitlupenartigen Bewegungseffekten werden einzelne Gesten und Gesichtsausdrücke exponiert die dann wie ein einzelnes starres Bild aus einem Comic herausspringen. In vielen verschiedenen Szenen entspinnt sich ein Dialog zwischen Yui und dem portugiesischen Tänzer Goncalo Cruzinha, deren Begegnung zwischen Irritation, Annäherung, Feindseligkeit und Duldung changiert. Hierbei fungiert die Sprechblase in vielfältigen Rollen, mal als Komplize, mal als Transmitter, mal kommentierend oder als allwissendes Auge, vor dem man sich verbünden muss um seine Gefühle und Gedanken auch voreinander? zu verstecken.</p>
