Amendment

Experience the new immersive work – a social choreography – by choreographer and professor Michael Kliën. In times of the systemic destruction of our environment, Amendment offers a container to reform our relationship with the unknown, the foreign, the animal. The work provides citizens with extraordinary experiences to temporarily transcend the human/non-human divide and dive into a relationship of reciprocal belonging.

Free; prior registration required.

About AMENDMENT

AMENDMENT, a social choreography that grew out of Kliën’s seminal work Parliament in response to the urgency of the situation, works on both the now and the next. It can acutely affect those who partake and the/their web of relations, the ecology to which they belong. At the same time, it develops the imagination for what comes after the catastrophe. How to rebuild? What do you rebuild? Going forward, AMENDMENT wants to mend, to provide a viable lifeboat into the next.
