Girls just wanna have… FREEDOM<\/strong><\/p>\n

The Italian premiere of Sabotage by Sara Angius and Johanna Ehlert takes place in Reggio Emilia, as part of Dance Week, celebrating female creativity.<\/h1>\n

Through an ironic yet profound play of movement, dancers and puppets manipulate one another within a living web of control, freedom, and poetic rebellion.<\/p>\n

\n

\u201cSabotage, as a guest performance in Halle, brings puppets to life and turns people into marionettes. Magnificent.\u201d

It has always been this way, and it always will be. It traps those who reject it, because it is part of our nature: the desire for freedom and power. There are those who live under the illusion of their own autonomy, without trying to escape the dance. And there are those who keep fighting\u2014naively, selfishly, trustingly, stubbornly, blindly\u2014unable to see through all the veils of our man-made world. Groping in the darkness of our hierarchical existence, at any cost. And what if this were the very meaning of being alive?<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

SABOTAGE speaks literally about manipulation, about pulling the strings. What is reality?<\/strong>
What becomes of our free will in an era in which we have all the means to be the most advanced generation in human history? We take refuge in illusory digital worlds, allow algorithms to guide our actions, let fake news shape our perception of reality, present ourselves through filters in order to better adapt to this unreal world.<\/p>\n

SABOTAGE casts a humorous and dramatic gaze on human nature<\/strong>. How much of our free will is real, and how much is just another illusion\u2014another carefully constructed part of the system?
Without words, using only virtuosic movement, it builds a metaphor of interdependence, power, and the human struggle with reality and illusion: who is manipulating whom?<\/p>\n

An original form of puppet theatre in which reality and appearance merge into a single dance\u2014poetic, sensitive, raw, profound, absurd, shocking, jarring.
Human.
A work that belongs to no box.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Sara Angius<\/span><\/span><\/strong> is an Italian contemporary dancer and choreographer based in Braunschweig, Germany. Her artistic research deeply explores the existential and inner dimensions of the human being, investigating emotional states that lie beneath the surface and the boundaries between reality, imagination, and perception. Her work develops through an interdisciplinary language that blends contemporary dance, puppet theatre, object animation, physical theatre, and illusionism, with the aim of stimulating the audience\u2019s imagination and transcending traditional rules of stage perception.<\/p>\n

She received her professional training at the DanceHaus Academy in Milan and also completed a degree in Communication Sciences for the Performing Arts at the University of Milan. Angius began her career as a performer in international companies and projects, including the Staatstheater Braunschweig, and through collaborations with artists such as James Thierr\u00e9e for Fr\u00f4lons<\/em> at the Op\u00e9ra Garnier in Paris.<\/p>\n

As a choreographer, she has gained recognition at international festivals: she was awarded at the Stuttgart International Solo-Tanz-Theater Festival, and her duo The Fish Bowl<\/em> won first prize at the Certamen Internacional de Coreograf\u00eda Burgos\u2013New York.<\/p>\n

In recent years, she has expanded her practice to include film production, creating INCOGNITUM<\/em>, her first dance film, which has been presented and awarded at international festivals. She also works as a teacher and guest choreographer in European institutions and dance festivals. Since 2024, she has collaborated with the Institute of Dance Arts at the Anton Bruckner Private University, and since 2022 she has been an active member of the artistic cooperative TANZKOOP, supporting the independent dance scene.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
