Some stories don't begin with an idea. They emerge through attention.
Two improvisers, a musician, and the audience enter the same space with nothing prepared. Through movement, rhythm, play, and genuine connection, images appear, relationships evolve, and unexpected stories reveal themselves. Every gesture matters. Every silence carries meaning.
Rather than telling a story, the performers discover it together with the audience, following what unfolds in the moment. The result is a theatrical experience that is playful, cinematic, deeply human, and completely unique to that evening.
This special performance marks the return of Colombian improviser Daniel Orrantia to the Würzburg Festival after many years, reuniting him on stage with Jesko Bahr, one of Würzburg's best-loved improvisers, for an evening celebrating trust, spontaneity, and the remarkable stories that can emerge when words are no longer needed.
With music by Steffen Brinkmann.
