Anthology

Andreas Hannes
Tue 10 Nov ’26 and Wed 11 Nov ’26
A dynamic performance built around a deceptively simple movement: skipping.
Tue 10 Nov ’26
and
Wed 11 Nov ’26

In Anthology, everything centres on skipping. Six dancers use it to set in motion a continuous sequence of rhythm and movement. What begins as a light and familiar performance transforms into a dazzling choreography in which bodies accelerate, shift and converge: a physical exercise in keeping moving.

Set to lightning-fast pop mashups, with dozens of hits flowing into one another, a physical translation of our times emerges. Fragments of dance styles, images and memories flash by, from folk to hip-hop, from club to ballet. The stage constantly changes shape, from dance floor to sports ground, from ice rink to ballroom.

From that ceaseless flow emerges a central question: how do you remain upright on your feet in a world that never stands still? Anthology shows how we navigate an overload of stimuli, with pop music as a shared rhythm – a collective memory in which generations meet and recognise one another.

  • Duration: 60 mins.

About Andreas Hannes

Andreas Hannes develops a distinctive movement practice in which rhythm, gravity and vibration shape the human physique. His work moves between dance, music and image, and explores how movement arises through the interplay of space and environment. After an initial focus on and background in classical percussion and film, he graduated from the SNDO in 2018 with The City. Since then, he has been developing a consistent, ongoing body of work focused on skipping and related movements, which has been recognised with awards including the BNG Dance Prize (2020) and selection for Aerowaves (2022).
