77 Stolen Fish

Allgemeine Informationen

We are a sorted bunch of performers who met training at the Berlin Post School for Physical Theater-Dance in Spring 2011. Though our roots spread as far and wide as our artistic influences, many of us with transnational identities and more than one native tongue, we now call Berlin our artistic home. We come from diverse training backgrounds including: Various contemporary dance techinques, Jacques Lecoq mime, Grotowski and other schools of physical theatre, performance art and photography.

We are in a nascent laboratory phase of our life together. We are strongly influenced by the structural and human architecture of this dynamic city in which we are all outsiders. We are a collective that is both a network of independent artists supporting one another and tight-knit group that collaboratively creates original work.

As we have been intensively training and living together in Berlin, our bodies, traditions and languages colliding like tectonic plates, a new system of meaning has begun to emerge from our borders– from the spaces in between what is already known. In our tiny babel, meaning is a slippery slope, impossible to pin down. So, it is from these games between understanding and miscommunication, similarity and difference that our work begins.
