Gauthier Dance // Dance Company Theaterhaus Stuttgart | FireWorks

An explosion of styles, energy, and choreographic signatures: with FireWorks, Gauthier Dance//Dance Company Theaterhaus Stuttgart ignites an exhilarating dance celebration—a spirited collection of works by 12 leading voices in contemporary dance. Pure joy, guaranteed.

Dynamic and impressively versatile, Gauthier Dance brings a fresh spark to the European dance scene. To mark the 40th anniversary of its German home base, Eric Gauthier has invited a dozen renowned international choreographers to take on a bold challenge: create a work inspired by music that reflects the artistic identity of Theaterhaus Stuttgart, a venue with deep jazz roots.

Here, music acts as a powerful driving force. The evening bursts to life with Barak Marshall and culminates in a breathtaking finale: Andonis Foniadakis’ trampoline-powered Bolero +. In between, a dazzling parade of irresistible creations by Hofesh Shechter, Benjamin Millepied, Virginie Brunelle, Johan Inger, Marco Goecke, Stijn Celis, Dominique Dumais, Mauro Bigonzetti, Sofia Nappi and Eric Gauthier himself.

Sheer delight!
