Bloody Business

Etymologiae. TanzVerse Akt I

by Katja Erdmann-Rajski

2015 | Stuttgart

She is considered the epitome of bloody lust for power – Lady Macbeth. Shakespeare’s verse rhythms drive them literally into a speech and bloodlust. In madness and (self) murder. But are not there also wounds of a broken soul, unfulfilled yearnings, disappointed desires and rebellion against an unfulfilled life? Only her body brings the contradictions to “language”. In the dance. She gets to the bottom of the emotional abyss. Find there, in addition to fantasies of power and murder, the fragile-tender as well as the pleasurable and the fearful. And not least the liberating comic.
