Have you ever been jealous? Sure, who hasn’t? And yes, it can eat at you, this burning feeling. “An unpleasant emotion”, according to Viennese choreographer Christine Gaigg. But it doesn’t have to be all bad, because it can “tell us something about ourselves, identify transformation processes and, at its best, be a guideline, a trigger to take action”.

In her new piece – featuring Anna Prokopová, Juliane Werner, Samuel Feldhandler and Frank Willens – Gaigg brings people together in an artistic context to reflect and possibly turn their backs on jealousy. In previous works, the choreographer examined eroticism and sex. In recent performances – including one on polyamory, which premiered at ImPulsTanz in 2024 – she likes to involve her audience.

Note: The performance contains nudity. At certain points during the performance, there will be interaction and possible physical contact with the audience.

Price: 32 Euro / reduced 27 Euro
