The Inevitable and You takes viewers into a captivating world where words are replaced by movement, emotions clash in human encounter, feelings sprout, break new ground, transform and constantly transition into something new, rousing, explosive, delicate, aggressive, gentle. A choreographic process, its dynamism and power, becomes visible, with the beginning and end remaining open.

The Inevitable and You looks at how complex, interpersonal relationships evolve amidst the density of life, in an endless chaos.
How do deep relationships emerge in the opacity and diversity of daily communication?
What existential challenges, instincts, and fears influence our togetherness?
Despite highly complex social networks, listening and empathizing are as arduous today as they have always been.
Establishing a relationship means taking long-term responsibility, demonstrating courage and perseverance and not being afraid - of both emotional intimacy and distance.
The dance in „The Inevitable and You" is the medium of this inner struggle of being in relation.
The piece unfolds in a continuous flow of movement, a dynamic, choreographic architecture that never comes to a halt.
One movement initiates the next; instinctively, the dancers respond to each other, creating an atmosphere of never-ending intensity.
