In choreographer Sergiu Matis’ new production “DRANG” (“URGE”), performers seek out new points of entry to dance, more fanciful inspiration and the resurrection of a sacred world. The premiere of "DRANG", together with the Berlin premiere of "Terrain" by Koistinen/Valikoski/Zajac, marks the opening weekend of the "Open Spaces" festival by Tanzfabrik Berlin. With the initiative "Tanzfabrik ♥ Radialsystem", the two institutions are cooperating within the framework of the festival to improve the labor and presentation conditions of dance professionals in Berlin.
The dance in “DRANG” no longer mourns the loss of nature; rather, it is animated by the yearning for enchanted woods and magic. This search for magical algorithms is accompanied and inspired by fantasias, toccatas and passacaglias for cembalo – from the Renaissance to today.
The raw compulsion of unresolved grief transforms itself into a storm of emotions – immediate, spontaneous and direct. It navigates from crisis to crisis, between the early Romantics and the visionary rebirth of the Renaissance. For the early Romantics, Drang (from the old Germanic word þrangwaz – squeezing, narrow), signified the undertow that drags one towards darkness and death. The new Drang in Sergiu Matis’ performance appears as reverence for the diverse forms of life.

From 17-28 February 2022, Tanzfabrik Berlin once again hosts the festival "Open Spaces". Since 2014, the festival has been orientated toward a broad (dance) audience; its diverse program and very different formats have brought exposure to some highly innovative protagonists of Berlin's contemporary dance scene. The opening weekend at Radialsystem presents two major Berlin premieres: "DRANG" by Sergiu Matis and "Terrain" by Milla Koistinen, Paul Valikoski and Ladislav Zajac. Both works are part of the ongoing collaboration "Tanzfabrik ♥ Radialsystem", which aims to support artists and render their work accessible to a wider audience.
You can find the complete programme of the "Open Spaces" festival here.
As part of Open Spaces, Tanzfabrik Berlin and Radialsystem have presented two artists to a broad audience on the stages of Radialsystem every spring since 2018. The collaboration aims to improve the labor and presentation conditions of dance professionals in Berlin beyond their individual institutional contexts. In addition to the visibility of this joint platform, an important moment of nexus between local and international artists and scenes is achieved. Both institutions provide equal support to the artists in the forms of co-production resources, rehearsal spaces and public relations work.
