English Translation:
“My name is Oskar Spatz. I am a dancer, and I have been dancing since 2007. My shoe size is 40/41. I weigh 70 kilos, and my favorite meal is rice with minced meat. Normally, I dance with my colleagues, but today I am alone on stage. I am happy to spend this evening with you because togetherness is warmth.”
Oskar Spatz, together with Tim Gerhards, reorders his life in a choreographic evening. He reflects on breakthroughs and setbacks, artistic, human, and personal. Once, he made the decision to work as a dancer—back then, he didn’t fully understand what that would mean. But he knew what he wanted. He almost always knows what he wants. And he has chosen to step onto the stage alone. In a one-hour solo performance about self-determination and life and work in community, he becomes the host for all who wish to be his guests.
