NDT 1 | GONE - Inspired by Benjamin Clementine

Marcos Morau creates with GONE his first full‑length performance for NDT 1. In this world premiere you step into an alienating, imaginative world where contemporary dance and physical theatre merge into one another.

Morau draws inspiration from the music and life of Benjamin Clementine. You feel that in a performance that is grand and intimate at the same time. You see dancers who seek each other out, lose one another and try to hold on again. In this way a poetic and sometimes unsettling performance emerges about staying connected.

Morau is known for his visual style and powerful theatrical language. In GONE he continues that line in a new creation for NDT 1. The combination with the layered musical world of Clementine gives this performance additional depth. Especially now, in a time in which connection does not feel self‑evident, that theme resonates directly. A special evening for dance enthusiasts that you not only watch, but also feel.
