Nach dem Ende von allem

Dance theatre

Five strangers meet in a laundrette. Where they come from or what they are looking for remains uncertain at first. The only vague promise is a neon sign above the entrance that reads “Wash your troubles away.”

Alternating between waiting and running both with and against each other, taking a route above or running straight through, this dance theatre piece by choreographer Beatrix Simkó examines moments of being overwhelmed and the unity of the community. The ensemble uses the laundrette as a playground for encounters and negotiations. They climb onto washing machines, step over benches and move through the space on rollerskates. They want to know why the world sometimes feels so heavy and whether there is a world behind the washing machine drum.

A performance that doesn’t need many words about being alone, staying together and enduring uncertainty, mixed with a touch of magic and one big secret.
