His pedagogic work served as a basis for him to develop a specific method of dance and movement, which draws its inspiration from Lachky’s ongoing interest in folk dances and folklore.

Katarina Stegnar: DROP DEAD

Solo performance. Katarina portrays her own death as a profoundly intimate and also an extremely theatrical sensation. Stegn se/Drop Dead is a performance in which everyone must play their part: the performer becomes a corpse, the audience becomes an undertaker and the performance becomes a funeral. (more…)
