​In her second Hamburg production, Mexican choreographer Yolanda Morales surrounds herself with a large team that transforms the stage into an immersive, atmospherically dense, charged space through sound, light and patterns. There, the following utopian scenario is fictionalized: The age of the Anthropocene is past, the prophesied ecological crisis has occurred. Some humans have survived this catastrophe. They still remember old signs, now fading and stories of grief and loss, but have now entered a period of transition and transformation. Taking a cue from the feminist theorist Donna Haraway's character of Camille from her book"Staying with the Trouble",  four dancers on stage slip into bodies whose human DNA might be related to a wolf, an insect or even a mushroom web. In emotionally expressive rituals a different, interconnected form of community emerges. The transforming bodies have developed a new ability: they can create a nervous, highly sensitive, emphatic system in which every sensation and every vibration is shared with everyone else in the room.
