In their research project ‚alle tage‘ the event/industrial rigger Jacob River Gresham and dancer Charlotte Petersen deal with the cosmos ’stage’ and its mechanisms. They develop a hyper-performative creature which is sharing the space with a technician. The coexistence of the two results in a duet in which theatricality meets functionality. All stage processes are made transparent for the audience, without the theatrical elements losing in magic. 

The content of the piece is loosely based on motives and imagery of the novel ‚Alle Tage‘ by the Hungarian author Terezia Mora.
