TREMBLE
Andreas Hannes works again with the practice of continuous skipping – as in skipping down the street. In Tremble, a group of dancers embarks on a journey without a destination. They move across the stage by drawing geometrical patterns and falling in and out of rhythm. Together, they form a body that dynamically moves through space. With a sustained cadence and the original music of composer Rival Consoles, Tremble highlights a space that is in transit. Through the continuous flow of skipping, you are pulled into the movement; as if you were sitting on a moving vehicle, trembling, you become part of a road-trip, in which your memories and inspiration intertwine.

“Tremble becomes an intoxicating experience about squeaky soil under the feet and vibrating air between the legs.”
Volkskrant
“The rhythmic, the coinciding, the simple repeating movements and the melodic music invite you to disappear into the performance,
like a child staring out of the car window while being gently cradled in half-sleep. ”
