DIE 4 JAHRESZEITEN
-neu verTANZt
Embark on a dance journey brought to life by bodies moving through — and moved by — the
four seasons. Let yourself be captivated by breathtaking visuals, tender emotions, a good dose of wit, and dynamic twists.
The four seasons fall into conflict, no longer agreeing on the order in which they should appear..
This evening is accompanied by Vivaldi`s The Four Seasons, rearranged by Max Richter.
A little piece of dance for both young and old, awakening the feelings of spring— even in autumn.
The Four Seasons- forget time and experience an unforgettable year in just one hour.

We invite you to make your courage visible – quietly or loudly, individually or together. MUT – das M steht für Frau is an artistic, participatory project for International Women’s Day 2026 in Munich. At its heart is the courage of women in all its colorful and diverse facets.
Event evening: Mut- das M steht für Frau*
March 3, 2026 I Fat Cat, Munich
Music, dance, storytelling, and visual arts come together in an interdisciplinary evening that makes women visible in all their diversity, creativity, and strength. The project creates a safe and inspiring space for participation, exchange, and artistic self-empowerment. Audiences can expect a multi-layered evening of dance, music, image, and word, as well as a moderated engagement with feminist perspectives – a performance that resonates deeply and leaves a lasting impression.
Together with Miriam Hanika, Elisa von Wallis, Simon Popp, Kunst-Frau-Politik e.V., and TANZTHEATRAL, an innovative format emerges that strengthens existing networks and firmly anchors feminist perspectives within Munich’s cultural landscape.
Workshop: Showing Courage – Writing Courage – Painting Courage
A preparatory workshop invites women to artistically express their personal moments of courage. Through writing, drawing, and other creative forms, participants explore what courage means to them. These texts, images, and thoughts will flow directly into the event evening. The workshop is free of charge, and no prior experience is required. Further details and registration coming soon.

RESEARCH
April 18
“DIE KULTHEXE” is an artistic, trinational research project (CH, AT, DE) that investigates ritual movement practices as embodied knowledge. The focus is on practices that were suppressed during the historical witch hunts (15th–18th centuries) — in particular, female-associated, communal, and resistant bodily rituals. At its core is the question of how the body can be understood as a living archive of marginalized rituals. As an artistic projection space for female bodily practice and collective memory, “DIE KULTHEXE” links ritual movement with socio-political reflection. Through somatic and choreographic methods, movement knowledge drawn from archives, field observations, and individual memory is reactivated and made tangible in contemporary dance.
"Starting in March 2026, we will launch an archive blog to accompany the research. Here, we will share texts, images, and videos from the process. The blog invites visitors to return regularly and actively follow the project’s development.”

The humorous piece is a staple in TANZTHEATRAL's repertoire. Since 2020, the duet has been performed repeatedly with great success — at Tanzzentrale Nürnberg, the Würzburg Dance Festival, and also in Austria.
The premiere took place on March 8, 2020, at Ampere Muffatwerk Munich.

The working process in "meine moms sagen immer..." is characterized by a very personal, fragile-naive, and almost pictorial style, rooted in lived conflicts and personal experiences.
The intention behind this collaboration is to encourage questioning and breaking down of traditional gender structures.
"meine moms sagen immer..." was supported by the Munich Department of Culture and the Office for Women's Equality.

NiemandsFrau
NiemandsFrau is a contemporary dance theatre work that tells the story of two women reunited at
an old train station — a place steeped in memories. This evocative piece explores intimacy, missed chances, and the new possibilities between women
today that were once forbidden. With just two suitcases as minimal props, these transform into places of metamorphosis for play, hiding, and reminiscing — blurring the lines between past and present. The narrative weaves together poignant storytelling scenes with abstract, atmospheric movement, creating a powerful emotional journey full of longing, humor, and bittersweet nostalgia. The music, composed by Chris Hammerle, weaves together train sounds, ambient textures, and delicate violin melodies.
