Liesa Van der Aa / B O D I E S Ensemble – HUNTER

On a basketball court, singing, electronics and rules of play melt into a musical arena. Voices, rhythm and movement explore competition, power and the human drive to feel and connect. Eight players come together on a basketball court. The referee whistles. The match begins. Something bounces. A ball - or a beat. Are we witnessing a game? Or a hunt? For HUNTER, Flemish director, composer and multidisciplinary creator Liesa Van der Aa collaborates with Berlin-based vocal ensemble B O D I E S. What begins as a game with rules and strategies unfolds into a reflection on competition, power and the human condition. Inspired by Homogenic by Björk, the production interweaves the playful voices of B O D I E S with new compositions by Van der Aa, tracks by Björk and electronic sounds. This creates a musical arena in which play, rhythm and emotion chase each other. HUNTER is a quest for what moves us - a musical struggle against numbness and social disintegration, a hunt for the heart.
