MIND THE GAP – Edition II
Rising Stars Dance Evening – “Goldberg Variations” by Heinz Spoerli and two world premieres by Caroline Finn & Filipe Portugal
A dance evening marking a new artistic beginning: MIND THE GAP – Edition II combines a unique development project with an impressive stage experience. Ten international up-and-coming talents stand on the threshold of a professional career—and bring precisely this moment between departure, risk, and arrival to the stage.
During an intensive five-week program, the dancers work under professional conditions on three choreographies that open up different artistic perspectives. The evening brings together the artistic styles of Filipe Portugal, who is creating a new work, Heinz Spoerli with one of his defining choreographies, and the internationally sought-after choreographer Caroline Finn. This creates a dynamic dialogue between generations, styles, and forms of expression.
The audience experiences not only three distinct works but also the development of a new generation of dancers—full of energy, precision, and artistic expression. At the same time, the project stands for sustainable support: The very first edition already led numerous participants directly to international engagements, and three were The success of the first edition in 2024 speaks for itself: Three participants were cast in the main production “Carmen” at the Königsfelden Dance Festival.
A special highlight: as part of the premiere, the Tanz und Kunst Königsfelden Dance Award will be presented for the second time to the most outstanding artistic personality.
An evening that brings tomorrow’s dance to life.
