Stop Dancing!

»Stop Dancing!« is a collaborative dance project between Dagmar Bock (Germany), Frimousse Yacobi (Benin) and Nicolas Bertrand Kakanou (Togo). The starting point is a phrase heard time and again: “Stop dancing.” – sometimes as a prohibition, sometimes as a comment, sometimes as a boundary. The title is not an instruction, but a question: Who is allowed to dance – when, where and for how long? And what happens when movement is interrupted?
