Ballettwerkstatt: Promethean Fire

How does a dance maker find his movements? How does he communicate them to his dancers? How are historical works restaged? What are the thoughts behind a ballet? What role does the music play?

In the ballet workshop for the premiere of Promethean Fire, ballet director Martin Schläpfer and the New York repetiteurs Richard Chen See and Elisa Clark, who are responsible for restaging the works by Paul Taylor and Mark Morris, together with the dancers of the Vienna State Ballet provide insights into the ballet program with live rehearsal excerpts.

In conversations with the artists involved, you will learn interesting facts about the works.
