Berlin Wall Rehearsal

Berlin Wall Rehearsal

Saturday, May 9th, 2009
This week I started working on the song “Mother” by Pink Floyd. This song was so important to us Berliners. I still remember the Wall concert held between Brandenburger Gate and Potzdamer Platz in a vacant space which was part of the “noman’s land” of the Berlin Wall in Berlin.  It talks about an overprotective mother and son relationship but at the same time it could be the overprotective government and it’s citizen (e.g. mother Russia, East Germany, The Wall in Berlin). This week I also asked my dancers out of curiosity about what they know regarding the Berlin Wall. I found out that they don’t know much, so we have to work on that..... I think it’s important to do research about something you are going to represent or dance about. Regardles of knowing or not, the process was wonderful. The dancers are very committed to it. Check it out below.....
