Siegmar Zacharias (Opening Event for About Dance)
Single Performance (Opening for About Dance FORUM)
'I don't want to swallow anymore'
by Siegmar Zacharias
ABOUT
I don’t want to swallow anymore is an improvisation that engages the materiality of speech, the effort of speaking up and the commitment to stay with processes even when they pose discomfort. This somacoustic drooling lecture addresses labour, solidarity, and indigestion. Things we cannot swallow and stomach anymore.

ABOUT DANCE FORUM BIO
ABOUT DANCE – forming futures is an exchange forum for professional dance and performance artists that addresses themes of precarity and possibility in the dance and performance sphere. Each weekend-long forum is structured and hosted by invited guest artists. The format of the forum is intended to be experimental, interactive, and grounded as much in discussion as in movement. This special edition will be hosted by Siegmar Zacharias, Luísa Saraiva, and Jule Flierl in collaboration with the Freelance Dance Ensemble Berlin.
