At the crossroads of choreography, performance art and ritual anthropology, this could be the most surprising dance show you will ever see.
The traditional 19th century Bavarian folk dance known as “Schuhplattler” involves striking palms against thighs, legs and shoes, creating percussive sounds and rhythms. Its energetic devotees constantly repeat their actions, trying to coordinate with each other in varying paces and patterns.
Electro, disco, romantic - the music driving the six dancers ranges from Classical compositions and British synthpop all the way to Hip Hop, reminding us that Schuhplattler was, traditionally, a courting dance!
