THE PLAYERS awarded the Dance and Theater prize of the city of Stuttgart and the land Baden-Württemberg as well as the critics prize and public prize!

Produktionszentrum Stuttgart invites all dancers to a special new encounter of dance: SEEDS - a dance laboratory-festival. In 4 intensive days, from 5 to 8 September, the dance scene will be witnessing and participating in the exchange between two fabulous and international choreographers: Edan Gorlicki and Evangelos Poulinas. SEEDS is a laboratory, in the form of workshops, for artistic practice and exchange of creativity. A coaching program, meeting rooms, showings, and talks will frame our new dance festival.

THE PLAYERS is a dance theater production that questions social status, manipulation, peoples’ intentions, what is reality? hierarchy? deceit? and how far are we willing to go to get what we want? THE PLAYERS is a test of power through the form of a game. However, “playing” the game is not always what it seems. Inspired by the horrifying yet magnetic charisma of psychopaths THE PLAYERS explores the cruel but often effective force of manipulation strategies.
