(If you read the following text aloud, please read it singing, rocking, shaking and/or trembling.)
They grow on a small feeling within us
they are not easy ones, but fertile ones
they have one cell or more,
they get ignored, you get bored, maybe.
Plunge into it and swim around.
Maybe take some deep breaths before.
The songs assembled here bring
together new ways of living on a planet
that has been damaged recently.
Open your pores, so long.
Simply said:
Restless Beings is a piece for 5 dancers. Together they form a rocking, trembling and shaking choir. They tell of forms of coexistence between humans and non-humans on a damaged planet.
