About the piece:

 

Growing up means constantly moving between expectations, insecurities and your own desire for self-determination. Young people today are under enormous pressure – from parents, friends, social media and society. At the same time, they live in a world full of uncertainties: geopolitical tensions, the climate crisis, the aftermath of the pandemic and an overabundance of opportunities that often means more overwhelm than freedom. Who should you be? Which decisions are the right ones? And how do you find your own path in a time that is constantly changing?

The production Main Character: Lost focuses on precisely these questions. Together with dancers from the breaking/urban dance and contemporary scene, these topics are explored and discussed. Own experiences with pressure, the feeling of being stuck or the search for identity are incorporated into the research and form the basis for an open exchange with the young audience.

The play is aimed at an audience aged 10 and over and is designed both for the stage and flexibly in pop-up format for other spaces such as school rooms, gyms, cultural centers, galleries, libraries or public spaces. A close exchange between the artists and the young target group already takes place during the development of the play. A mediation format is considered during the development process of the production and follows the performances.

Fokus Tanz München is co-producing the piece with HELLERAU – European Center for the Arts Dresden: artists from both cities will work together to strengthen the exchange between the local scenes in Munich and Dresden.
