Tanztheater St. Louis (USA)
Inszenierung: Matthias Oldag
Bühne: Matthias Oldag
Besetzung: Gash/Voigt Dance Company
"... "Panacea" is about raw feelings, and it reaches to expressive dephts that American choreographers do
not often care to explore, It is not insignificant that the team of artists who put the peace together includes
two from Germany .. The staging is by Matthias Oldag, who appareantly was the prima designer of most of what
the audience saw, In the discussion that followed the Sunday matinee, Gash said that Oldag spent as much as
tree hours honing so simple a thing as the touching of a face with a hand. Oldags perfectionism seems to have
paid off .. these little gestures are extraordinarity powerfuL..they form images that resonate in a memory much
fonger than any mere dance routine could…”
