A STAGE WORK FOR AND WITH PEOPLE LIVING WITH PARKINSON DISEASE

We told stories until, for a brief moment, we didn’t know if they happened in reality or if we dreamt it all. But the snake in our body, our reality, we knew we needed to embrace.
In DEN OF SNAKES by Annabelle Dvir and the participants of 'Moving Communities' people, sound, word, movement and imagination blend together until they join together in a silent, gentle and plastic dance, in which a new physicality is realized, if only for a few minutes, and gives itself to not feeling alone through the action of performance.
IN-VISIBLE
A cliché of historiography
A COLLABORATION BETWEEN Annabelle Dvir | WOMEN OF SOUNDS & XXTANZTHEATER - Bibiana Jimenez

A techno-poetic-feminine sound machine traces and performs mechanisms and practices of IN-VISIBILITY. Reflexes, broken dances and soundscapes are linked and used to load traumatic childhood memories, stories of wombs, revealing the human black box.
What are the relations to the space where we become a record, between the desire to be present and at the same time to disappear; on the way perhaps to beautify, almost to purify what seems abominable; feeling the moment of being threatened. Rewriting the skin of the chain of mothers.
The German-Colombian choreographer Bibiana Jiménez and the Israeli-Georgian choreographer and voice artist Annabelle Dvir enter into an intercultural dialogue with their ensembles. Using dance, music, voice production and the action of storytelling, they investigate the traces and diaspora of invisibility, resistance and womanhood, striving to revive and transform parts of the past in the embodiment of today.
Women's resistance in the past leaves its mark on our lives to this day, but hardly in the writing of history - the historiography. Can we collect the traces of invisibility, the scattered voices of female rebellion and the signs of fleeting hope? IN-VISIBLE: A CLICHÉ OF HISTORIOGRAPHY tries to invite for a multidisciplinary collision between past present and future - our imagination is a tool to reflect on life, art and community. To survive.
