Compagnia dreifrauendietanzen (threewomendancing)
Elementi di danza, teatro e circo contemporaneo si fondono in una pièce che parla di amore, di perdita e di coraggio.
Che si trovino per aria, per terra o che stiano ballando un tango, le tre performer narrano storie di crisi, perseveranza e trascendenza. Una danza poetica – a tratti farsesca – tra il corpo, le emozioni e gli oggetti che divengono un’allegoria di sfide e trasformazioni.
La Compagnia
La Compagnia dreifrauendietanzen è composta da tre artiste che sono anche amiche: Ellen Urban, Claudia Schnürer e Daniela Feilcke-Wolff. Tutte e tre hanno alle spalle un intenso lavoro di ricerca ed esplorazione nel campo della danza e del movimento. Si sono conosciute grazie al loro comune amore per il Tango. Ognuna di loro esplora la possibilità di fondere l’espressione teatrale, la narrazione e il proprio stile particolare.
Lo spettacolo too HIGH too LOW too FAR ha visto la luce dopo una gestazione di ben due anni e centinaia di km percorsi fra la Germania e l’Italia. La sua realizzazione è stata possibile anche grazie al lavoro di Franz Mestre (Pivoting Theatre).

too HIGH too LOW too FAR
by Cie. dreifrauendietanzen (threewomendancing)
Sometimes life just seems to be too High too Low too Far.
The Compagnie dreifrauendietanzen fuses elements of dance, theatre and contemporary circus into a piece about love, loss and courage.
Starting point for research and devising this piece have been moments of crisis, as they could occur in any person’s life.
Whether up in the air, down on the ground, or through tango, the three female performers narrate what they experience in the center of the hurricane. What does it feel like to get stuck or have to say goodbye to ourselves?
Using poetic metaphors, the piece examines various aspects, colours and details of our inner-lives.
Fragments of three stories –from the tragic to the farcical– that illustrate perseverance, acceptance and transcendence.
A dance between body, emotions and objects which becomes an allegory for challenge and transformation.
with Claudia Schnürer, Ellen Urban, Daniela Feilcke-Wolff

About the group:
Cie. dreifrauendietanzen is composed by three artists-friends: Ellen Urban, Claudia Schnürer and Daniela Feilcke-Wolff. All three have been working and exploring movement and dance intensively for many years. They became acquainted through their mutual love for Tango. Each of them explores the possibilities to fuse theatrical expression, storytelling and her own particular genre.
Following a 2-year developmental period, and during this process, traveling many hundreds of kilometers between Germany and Italy, too HIGH too LOW too FAR has come a long way. The piece has found it´s form also thanks to Franz Mestre´s (Pivoting Theatre) work of crystalizing physiclal material and theme.

Tricatiempo sono:
Nella Genova del dopo G8, un gruppo di tifosi del Genoa, stanchi di quelle che considerano vessazioni da parte dello Stato, decide di organizzarsi in una nuova compagine denominata “Facce coperte”. Durante il tentativo di introdurre uno striscione non autorizzato dentro lo Stadio Marassi, uno di loro rimane gravemente ferito dalla manganellata di un agente che tentava di impedirglielo. L’episodio scatenerà tragiche conseguenze nelle vite degli ultras e dei poliziotti del Reparto mobile di Genova: tutti dovranno fare i conti con se stessi e i gruppi a cui appartengono, scegliendo tra eterna adolescenza e vita adulta, giustizia e omertà, lealtà e tradimento.
Inizia la sua carriera artistica dopo essere stato un ginnasta di livello nazionale, ed aver insegnato Ginnastica Artistica e coreografia in Italia e in America.
