Inside

A milestone of contemporary dance returns to Munich

With Rosas danst Rosas, Anne Teresa De Keersmaeker brings one of the most influential works of postmodern dance to the stage of Muffathalle. The piece, premiered in 1983 and danced with a new cast in 2026, combines precise repetitions, everyday gestures, and musical structures into an intense stage experience. The current presentation as part of TANZWERKSTATT EUROPA relies on the power of a choreographic classic that is still read as a feminist statement.

The choreography as the pulse of the evening

De Keersmaeker's signature is unmistakable: reduction becomes tension, repetition becomes density, and from the apparent strictness arises an astonishing emotional force. Rosas works with a precise dramaturgy of movement, space, and time that sharpens the focus on body and music. The music by Thierry De Mey and Peter Vermeersch propels the action in a rhythmic movement that resonates particularly directly in the theater atmosphere of Muffathalle.

A classic of postmodern dance

Anne Teresa De Keersmaeker founded Rosas in 1983 during the creation of Rosas danst Rosas; since then, her work has stood for a rigorous exploration of the relationship between music and movement. The company links choreographic precision with geometry, numerical structures, nature, and social dynamics. This revival draws its authority from exactly this: here, dance history, the present, and vibrant repertoire maintenance meet in a concentrated form.

The Muffathalle as a suitable stage

The Muffathalle provides the ideal setting for this production. The location in Muffatwerk is described as accessible; S-Bahn stations such as Rosenheimer Platz and Isartor are nearby, and the route via the Munich public transport network is clearly marked. For the audience, this creates an evening that combines artistic intensity with good accessibility.

What visitors can expect

What is expected is not a decorative dance image, but a concentrated stage experience with high physical presence, clear form, and great historical radiance. Those who engage with the precise repetition, the sensitive dynamics of the dancers, and the acoustic energy of the evening will experience a night that resonates. This guest performance is one of the culturally strong highlights of TANZWERKSTATT EUROPA and deserves an encounter in the hall.
