"Amphi" is a public-space performance that confronts fascist forces of the past and present. Its starting point is a dance piece by choreographer Noa Eshkol, created in 1953 to commemorate the Warsaw Ghetto Uprising. Omer Krieger translates the original work into the present day. For Dresden, he has developed a new version that unfolds between two historically charged sites: the former Nazi-era rally terrace on the Elbe and the Festspielhaus Hellerau, which served as a police school from 1938 to 1945. Over two days, "Amphi II" moves between commemorative dance and public action, asking what collective remembrance can look like today.

About the venue: HELLERAU - Europäisches Zentrum der Künste

HELLERAU - Europäisches Zentrum der Künste is a historic arts centre in the garden city of Hellerau, Dresden's first garden city district. The Festspielhaus, built in 1911 by Heinrich Tessenow, was originally home to the Dalcroze Institute and became a pioneering stage for rhythm, dance and theatrical reform in early 20th-century Europe. Today it hosts contemporary dance, performance, theatre and interdisciplinary festivals, drawing artists and companies from across the continent.
