I do not want to overdo the praise of the town, but a cultural Short trip before the summer break to be here but yet mentioned. He led us to Neuchâtel, in this lovely, with Freiburg comparable in some city. The occasion was the festival neuchâtel scène ouverte , a free dance festival, which has been now seven years of the yellow stage of Neuchâtel and some walls recorded - and this long for two full weeks. On the way to the Hôtel de Ville we heard at first a song: same day there was a choir meeting, in which the city Saturday morning audience was involved and generously granted. You will understand that I appreciate a city happy, the middle Summer has such a lavish supply of public culture exhibit! But now the dance: Come, we were due to Attention à la marche the Compagnie pas perdus . Your theater room was give the lobby of City Hall, a large, T-shaped room, the two massive colonnades the necessary Republican gravity. Between the pillars and under the auspices walked or rested already a good dozen dancers. We also set up discreetly as possible, and watched how the initial, warm-up movements slowly compressed to a beginning. This has been marked - and with it the whole piece - by the music. A bewildering variety of instruments were ready, which all looked like they were taken directly from an unknown, dark cult. A shaman-like multi-instrumentalist brings them to life, rhythm and noise generated, shrill, throbbing, piercing, and drove the dancers through space, toward and away from each other, to remote corners and then right through the audience. The pillars blocked the view that Mitzuschauenden hindered the movement: How well did each of those present another piece, a unique combination of movement shreds and music from all sides, but also from the rhythm of bare feet on the stone floor, the heavy breathing of a dancer and the draft of a rushing dancer. I let my intuition to move through space, was always looking after the heart of the action and was more intense details that I had not even sought. In short: Attention à la marche was a compelling theatrical work of art that was pleasing from the large audience given a warm applause.
And to come back to the eulogy at Neuchâtel: There have been rounded off to the summer theater trip with a cider in the Brasserie Le Cardinal , a sandwich on a lake, a refreshing swim in it; strengthened equally and in body and spirit and relaxed beat We go home one.
