Schattenberg 'once more with feeling' is a compelling and hypnotic duet that centers on ideas of synchrony and its opposite. At their invite, acclaimed English choreographer and designer Theo Clinkard has conceived an evening in two distinct parts that requires the performers to practice directing attention off the body and to dance the space between them. Across its duration 'once more with feeling' uses the illusion of two pulsating bodies to set the audience into oscillation, inviting reflection on the complex nature of what connects us and how it might eventually transform our very being.

With a sound score by Samir Kennedy and lighting by Emilio H. Díaz Abregú this duet is the latest in a series of works hosted by Münster-based ensemble 'MNEME kollektiv' subsumed under the title 'MNEME invites'.
