WUNDERWELT – Artistic residence in Chemnitz
Within the framework of our residency funding, the team led by choreographer Nitsan Margaliot was able to produce WONDER WORLD to further develop intensively and to open up new choreographic, musical and visual levels.
The premiere of „Wunderwelt“ will take place from February 21 to 23, 2027, at tanzhaus nrw in Düsseldorf.

Together with the dancers and the dramaturgy, various scenes were created that deal with wonder, avant-garde, absurdity, musicality, and the interplay between human and machine. In collaboration with the costume designer Kaur Hansel, movable costumes and sculptural body extensions were developed that expand the movement language and dramaturgy of the piece.
Musician Antoine Mermet added a unique sound world to the creative process, which gives the scenes additional depth and imaginative spaces.
A special moment of the residency was the presentation of a work-in-progress as part of the TANZ | MODERNE | TANZ festival in front of young audiences. The valuable feedback provided important insights for the further choreographic and dramaturgical development as well as for the design of the audience situation.
We are pleased to have accompanied and supported this artistic development process.
