This Tomorrow - Riess Neustadt Collective (2026)

(in process) premiere 3. - 5. July 2026, Schwere Reiter Munich

This Tomorrow unfolds as a choreographic concert — an installative structure of sound, bodies, and resonating space. Constantly pulsating and continuously transforming, the performers move through cycles of construction and disintegration.

The goal: to keep going.

The trio, consisting of two dancers and one musician, manifest different constellations in a ritual of fluctuating negotiation between the individual and the collective — with care, with melancholy, with joy.

In This Tomorrow, somatic movement research unfurls across a choreography of interwoven musical currents. Digital sounds merge with voice and acoustic instruments, and weight is embodied across its full amplitude. A future of aliveness and potentiality swells between us.  How do we continue within seemingly endless cycles of cultural and economic hegemony? Moving beyond nihilism, the work explores post-capitalist imaginaries and the possibility of carrying and pulling one another with persistence through the fragile, open space of the present.
