About the show

In Harmonia, Unusual Symptoms and Hungarian choreographer Adrienn Hód invite us to explore a new the human body and its meaning in dance and society. Between shared explorations of physical diversity, fun-filled exuberance and a good dose of self-irony, an ensemble of dancers with and without disabilities questions hierarchies of classical dance, but also the supposedly progressive forms of contemporary dance.

Asking for the undisturbed attention of the audience, they throw conventional notions of the body and the structures built around it overboard and set about playfully realigning our gaze.Harmonia was awarded the Rudolf Lábán Prize 2023 for the best dance piece in Hungary and was invited to Tanzplattform Deutschland 2024, one of the most imporant showcase for contemporary dance in Germany.
