MIRA 5 / ein Stück über das Aufstehen - MIRA / Julia Riera & Julia Franken

To fall and to rise - a reoccurring circuit. In this production MIRA investigates the reasons behind the idea of rising and looks at the pure physical action of it. A sensitive balancing act between the two performers develops. The tension bow of the piece links with the dynamic of the rising movement, continuously being determined by the repeating but ever-changing cycles of falling and rising.
