Acrobatic bodies wriggle themselves into impracticable positions. A live band immerses you in a sound bath of electronic dark wave, gothic, industrial, noise en extreme metal. out of hands is a dance and music performance about the dark side of being young. A group teenagers take you along on a intense journey to their underworld. Far away from an idealized picture. Straight to the pain of being a teenager.
In 2018, choreographer Michiel Vandevelde created the production Paradise Now (1968-2018) at fABULEUS, which was received as one of the most exciting dance performances of that year. For out of hands, he worked again with teenagers between the ages of 13 and 23. In ancient myths, youthfulness often symbolizes immortality, purity, innocence and hope. Behind this idealized view on youthfulness, however, lurks a very different world: one of bodies out of balance. out of hands is situated between the under and upperworld of the psyche. An incantating experience.
In collaboration with STUK.
