As part of the 4exchange+ Residency Programme, our PZ member Smadar Goshen has been invited to Munich for a ten-day residency at Tanztendenz München.

From 07.07. - 16.07.2025, the Stuttgart-based choreographer and her team are revisiting and further developing their performance Body that Stands, which premiered at Theater Rampe Stuttgart in March 2025. Under the new title Body that <still> Stands, the team returns to the existing work and asks what has changed since its premiere and what needs to be reconsidered from today’s perspective.

Together with the performers and PZ member Bar Gonen, Cordelia Eleonore Lange and Zuki RingArt, Smadar Goshen explores the concept of resistance through the lens of resilience. In response to current conflicts and ongoing developments, the existing material is being revisited, processed and reshaped. The work becomes an act of prayer – for change, for development, and for the possibility of a horizon.

On Wednesday, 16.07.2025 at 6.30 pm, the team will present the current state of the work in a public showing at Lindwurmhof. The showing will be followed by an Artist Talk with Smadar Goshen.

We look forward to sharing insights into the ongoing residency process and to engaging with the audience in a conversation about the work and its current questions.
