A collaboration between two of Canada's most renowned and imaginative companies, choreographer Crystal Pite's Kidd Pivot and playwright/performer Jonathon Young's Electric Company Theatre, Betroffenheit is a gripping and emotionally visceral exploration of psychological trauma. Named after a German word that loosely translates as shock, bewilderment, or impact, this "rare and staggering" (The Globe and Mail, Toronto) dance-theater hybrid addresses the failure of language in the face of emotional suffering. #BerkeleyRADICAL #Innovation
Please note: This performance contains strobe-like effects, nontoxic theatrical haze, and strong language.
