Thikra: Night of Remembering marks a celebration and a farewell. Akram Khan Company is celebrating its 25th anniversary, but this will be its final work before it winds up. Its founder, Akram Khan, is a restless spirit who has explored many stories, cultures and myths over a long career as a dancer and choreographer. He has also developed his own, unique choreographic language, rooted in the South Asian dance forms of kathak, in which he was trained, and bharatanatyam, blended with Western contemporary dance.

Berlin's avant-garde artistic scene is forever enriched by the mesmerising performance work, DUNST, crafted by the dynamic duo Marie Zechiel and Elodie Carstensen. The piece premiered at the esteemed LOST Art Festival 2025. This stunning piece transports us into a realm where body, space, and atmosphere converge in an unforgettable experience. Set against the backdrop of Guillaume Cousin's monumental smoke-ring installation within the industrial expanse of the Kolbenhutte, DUNST unfolds a tapestry of movement that captivates the senses.

Joe Goode’s latest immersive work, "Are You Okay?", at the Rincon Center, explores emotional fault lines in the national psyche, avoiding aerial dance techniques.
