‘𝙏𝙊𝙄𝙇’ explores the dancing body at work – torn between alienation and desire, routine and rebellion. Drawing from ballet, Irish folk and punk, five dancers, accompanied by two musicians, create a physical portrait of dance as both labor and longing.

What inspired the blend of Sappho, Shibari, and Punk to explore lesbian desire? 🤔
We had a little Q&A with Eli Cohen and Sheena McGrandles about “𝗮𝘀 𝗹𝗼𝗻𝗴 𝗮𝘀 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝘄𝗮𝗻𝘁”, the show premieres tomorrow at HAU2.
The premiere is already sold out but there are 3 more dates and an artist talk.

• 𝗦𝗵𝗲𝗲𝗻𝗮 𝗠𝗰𝗚𝗿𝗮𝗻𝗱𝗹𝗲𝘀
𝗮𝘀 𝗹𝗼𝗻𝗴 𝗮𝘀 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝘄𝗮𝗻𝘁

⚡️𝗧𝗔𝗡𝗭

⏰ 6.–9.11., 20:30 / 𝙋𝙧𝙚𝙢𝙞𝙚𝙧𝙚 📍HAU2: Hallesches Ufer 34, 10963 Berlin ⌛ 60 mins.
🎫 Tickets 13€ / 22€
🗣️ 8.11., 21:30: Artist Talk mit Louise Trueheart (@truelouzer)

The duet “as long as you want” by Sheena McGrandles (@__in__other__times__) and Eli Cohen (@eelicohen) is a choreographic study of lesbian temporalities. The work is inspired by a body of erotic fantasy literature – assembling a cross-temporal arch of female poetic voices. Ancient poet Sappho meets contemporary thinkers such as Anne Carson and Sara Torres, alongside kink and punk practices, including Shibari, gay shadow dance, and pogo. A personal exploration of desire unfolds in a pastel-coloured landscape, with patches of digital renderings and densely knotted denim structures developed together with the visual artist Anna Mirkin (@anna_mirkin).

I started planning ‘crying creatures crying’ more than a year ago. Back then I didn’t know how much there will still be to cry for. I don’t know yet what this piece will do and be when it grows up (24th of May premiere), but I’m touched to be spending time with it now.
