Short Transit Görlitz-Zittau

The most extreme art experiences can be evoked by very short pieces. Just as artful as the haiku, the song or the short film, stage dance often gains intensity through brevity: the shorter, the purer, more powerful and direct its message.
On this evening we will present a series of short pieces with the highest artistic standards by different choreographers, highly varied in style and content but with one thing in common: they all offer an intense, concentrated, self-contained and exciting experience.
