Nelken

Created by famous German choreographer Pina Bausch in 1982, 'Nelken' ('carnation') features twenty dancers, a soundtrack of Ella Fitzgerald singing George Gershwin and carpets of pink and red carnations. One of the first examples of a theatre show that mixes up the genres, here classical dance is spliced with alternative scenes and a drama by Raimund Hoghe, with costume design by the late Rolf Borzik. Altogether, it's an unforgettable lesson in the art of dance.
