CITIZEN NOWHERE - German Premiere September 26 202

CITIZEN NOWHERE - German Premiere September 26 2021 by Staatsballett Berlin created to Szymon Brzoska’s haunting score at Deutsche Oper Berlin - with performances by Staatsballett Berlin soloists @kollmanns and @alexanderfbird

“And now here is my secret, a very simple secret: “It is only with the heart that one can see rightly; what is essential is invisible to the eye.” - Antoine de Saint-Exupéry

This unique work reflects upon the human condition: created in 2017 to a specially commissioned score by Szymon Brzoska, CITIZEN NOWHERE is a 25-minute 'tour de force' for one dancer. Socio-political in its subject matter, the work deals with the individual's sense of being lost at a time in world history when people, utterly alone, find themselves in "a modern predicament as soon as, perhaps fleeing, they find their very existence called into question with the status of statelessness." Inspired by "The Little Prince", this solo piece gives physical expression to the philosophy of Antoine de Saint-Exupéry, showing how the solitary existence of being a human is the most precious thing in the world.

VOICES - World Premiere September 26 2021 by Staat

VOICES - World Premiere September 26 2021 by Staatsballett Berlin created to Max Richter's profound new score at Deutsche Oper Berlin - with performances by @polinasemionovaofficial @alejandro_virelles @aya_0kumura @__mcmillan @weronikafrodyma Konstantin Lorenz @brodbeck_brodbeck @sachamales Iana Balova @rossmartinson @marik49 @alexanderfbird @tabatharumeur and @tgurfein

Between a million yesterdays and a million tomorrows, there is only one today.

Created and developed during one of the pandemic's darkest moments, Dawson, together with his cast, embarked on an introspective journey, allowing a communal spirit of trust come to fruition in the protected, shielded, and safe confines of the rehearsal studio. From this unity, genuine hope arises which in turn is conveyed to the audience as a universal human sentiment as inspired by Max Richter’s composition VOICES (2020). For many years, Max Richter devoted himself to studying the United Nation's Universal Declaration of Human Rights from 1948, polyphonically paraphrasing the declaration's opening words: »All human beings are born free and equal in dignity and rights.« These words are the guiding principle to his scenic compositions, counteracting the bleak climate of current global events they were created in with his own future vision of a better and fairer world whose implementation lies in the hands of us all.
