Jiří Kylián-Michael Schumacher
Last Touch First
If Jiří Kylián embodies the emotive and the fragile, Michael Schumacher brings a unique improvisatory ability to their timeless collaboration. In Last Touch First, a cast of six fine dancers throw themselves into the game of enacting everything grotesque in the human soul against a Chekhovian backdrop. The flow of time slows as emotionally-charged moments flare in the darkness, as a strange sequence of images invite us to sink into their beauty in a sort of silent theatre.
