| Soliloquy-
Solo for Two Choreography: Daniela Hoff Performed by Liza Austria and Daniela Hoff Music: Scott Johnson by Kronos Quartet, voice of I.F. Stone Duration: 13:07 min. "Soliloquy-Solo for Two" is part of a bigger work that investigates on the challenges of truly connecting and communicating. It deals with two different perspectives of the same situation, two different worlds existing next to each other. The choreography questions, what happens when the point of view changes and the two different dimensions meet or overlap. The audience is invited to think about the lack of communication in their own lives, personally and globally. Click here to view excerpt |

The piece “Picture Book” explores different relationships. It looks at the surface level, which is more obvious and easy to see, and the deeper layers, which are more intimate, and might be just thoughts, memories or wishes. These different plains run simultaneously, sometimes unrelated, separately, but sometimes they meet, they cross, which lets the unexpected happen. Click here to view excerpt |
