" I loved to dance because I was scared to speak. When I was moving, I could feel” Pina Bausch, July 27, 1940 – June 30, 2009.

Pina Bausch - Cafe Müller

first saw this on tumblr years ago, remembering it randomly one day I type ‘woman dancing in a room of chairs’ into google and sift through the references.

 This is my fave part. The cruelty and banality of her body falling repetitively. It’s sad and indescribably familiar.

I was in the front row – close enough to hear the dancers breathe, close enough to see the most subtle expressions, to make eye contact, to smell the dirt (and to get dirt kicked on me) – for Tanztheater Wuppertal's performance of Café Müller and the Rite of Spring yesterday afternoon and I am not the same, to my core, in my bones, I may never be the same

(still trembling, still crying)

Cafe Muller, Pina Bausch

"Café Müller" (1978) es una obra maestra de la danza-teatro creada por la coreógrafa alemana Pina Bausch, que explora la soledad, el dolor y la búsqueda de conexión humana en un escenario lleno de sillas. Con música de Henry Purcell, la pieza se caracteriza por movimientos intensos y repetitivos, siendo una experiencia visceral e icónica de la danza contemporánea.
