After EQUALITY! and SOLIDARITY!, with GUGUS! the company dances out of line with an unconventional interpretation of the concept of freedom, while at the same time remaining within it. In Swiss German, "Gugus" means something like "nonsense". Two performers meet on stage. Following on from the Dada tradition, they radically question the idea of things: be it how people have to move around, how they enter into dialog with each other, how language, body and voice are used, or how objects are used. After EQUALITY! and SOLIDARITY!, the first two successful parts of the trilogy for a young audience, inspired by the iconographic slogan of the French Revolution "Freedom, Equality, Solidarity[1]", the company Rebecca Weingartner completes the trilogy with GUGUS! in co-production with the Theater Roxy in spring 2025.

EQUALITY! back from Northeast India
We are back from our EQUALITY! Northeast India Tour in collaboration with Pro Helvetia and our host and choreographer Joshua Sailo -who we met in the frame of Swiss Dance Days in early 2022! It turned out to be an expansive journey to three different cities in the Northeast of India- Aizawl, Itanagar, and Shillong- that engaged us physically, emotionally and relationally as we reflected on the topic of equality with fresh perspectives with the people we met along the journey. From day one, our tour was built on passion to connect with young audiences (young not just in age but exposure to arts), and openness to see one another authentically. We were hosting workshops at schools and universities, performing at remarkable venues, e.g. a buddhist monastery and connecting with artists from the region- expanding our vision of EQUALITY! to a new cultural context
