In her solo performance “inside human”, dancer and choreographer Vasiliki Bara searches for identity in a world characterized by confusion and fragmented realities. Who are we really and which self do we present to the world?

With the idea that every person carries a creature within them, she forms new bodies on stage that oscillate between human and creaturely forms. Skin merges with skin, the boundaries of the body become blurred, its form becomes fluid and its limbs appear alien. The piece emphasizes the discrepancy between being and appearance: between what we perceive and what is real. It sharpens our view of the great unknown that we ourselves are.

The dance is accompanied by printed images by photographer Teresa Grundei and electro-acoustic sounds by composer Konstantinos Baras.

A production by Vasiliki Bara in cooperation with Schaubühne Lindenfels and 4fT - Tanzplattform Leipzig e.V. Funded by the City of Leipzig - Cultural Office.
Vasiliki Bara is part of the Artist Development Program 2024/2025 of LOFFT - DAS THEATER.
