Im Rahmen von ZÜRICH TANZT – Best Regards
BEST REGARDS is a letter written to someone who will never answer, an exercise in memory, a dance in the shadow (or light) of Nigel Charnock, performer and co-founder of DV8 Physical Theater, who died in 2012. Marco D'Agostin celebrates his memory without nostalgia, seeking to answer, with the audience, the question: What would you write to someone who will never read your words?
"I met and worked with Nigel in 2010. This encounter marked a clear line in my way of thinking about performance. After him, the possibility of dance for me is the possibility that everything on stage can happen, simultaneously." Marco D’Agostin
