Andreas Denk, who has had a long career as a street performer and in site-specific shows, aims with his new piece to take dance to libraries, gaining inspiration from the surroundings and their contents, in collaboration, as in all his recent choreographic work, with Jordi Casanovas.

“Losing yourself in a story, dreaming as you read a book. We have all done that. We all enjoy books and their power over our imagination. Cookery books, art books, scientific books, forgettable books. Books are everywhere. At home, at school, at the hairdresser’s and at the bookshop. Two men, thousands of books and many stories accompany them on their exciting trip to the library. Friends in the library, a poetic treatment for a choreography project, a journey through time and poetic space.”
