Pina Bausch / Meryl Tankard: Kontakthof – Echoes of ’78

It’s said that Pina Bausch often pondered the idea of reprising her works with the same cast years later. Now, almost 20 years after the choreographer’s death, her wish is coming true. The original cast of Bausch’s Kontakthof reunites for this special performance five decades after its premiere in 1978. With Meryl Tankard choreographing the 2026 work, the present and past versions of Kontakthof interact, alongside projections of archival footage from the original performance. This is a rare opportunity to see a classic work of modern dance with its OG cast.
