How does an ableist society become embedded in our structures and in the arts? The Forward Dance Company at LOFFT – DAS THEATER in Leipzig explores which norms are constructed by and through bodies on stage and radically questions them. Find out how they do this and which conventions they break in the third episode of “THAETER – Eine Spurensicherung.” In it, Laura Tontsch and Caspar Weimann perform classical ballet, and Phia Neises then deconstructs this notion of “classical.”

“THAETER – Eine Spurensicherung” is the podcast for the Federal Theater Prize. On behalf of the Fonds Darstellende Künste, Laura Tontsch and Caspar Weimann present the award-winning theater institutions from 2023 and 2024.
