Sunny

For several years, Emanuel Gat has been one of the leading personalities in the field of contemporary dance, presenting his work Sunny for the first time at Dance Biennale Venice in 2016. The Israel-born and France-based choreographer often accesses his works through music, in this case in collaboration with Awir Leon. The musician and producer, hailing from the Israeli techno scene, created an acoustic space in a free-flowing form, oscillating between new and familiar sounds, difficult experiment and sheer pleasure, exploring new fields for the perception of movement, involving interpreters and spectators alike. His own company, Emanuel Gat Dance, has been frequently invited to Berlin, winning over audiences and critics alike. Now, for the first time, the choreographer will work together with Staatsballett Berlin on the recreation of Sunny, not without extensively developing the vibrant experiment of structure and emotion anew. Staatsballett Berlin will perform the piece in the Volksbühne Berlin.
