Claire Cunningham brings an extraordinary Lecture Demonstration with 4 Legs Good Remix to tanzhaus nrw

On September 13, 2026, Claire Cunningham opens a personal yet precise stage experience in the Small Hall of tanzhaus nrw. 4 Legs Good Remix delves into her movement approach Quanimacy and makes visible how crutches, body knowledge, and artistic experience create an unmistakable choreography.

An evening between movement research and stage poetry

Cunningham combines lecture, performance, and dance into a concentrated form that does not explain but makes experienceable. The focus is on the question of how bodies move through space, resistance, and habit – and how new forms of presence, connection, and interdependence arise from this. The staging relies on clarity rather than overwhelming and gains its intensity precisely from that.

Quanimacy as an artistic signature

The work is deeply rooted in Cunningham's practice as a performer with disabilities. Her crutches appear not as aids in the traditional sense but as an extension of an aesthetic mindset. This develops into a precise dramaturgy, where perception, materiality, and movement respond to one another. The audience experiences not distanced theory but a vivid reflection on dance art, body images, and access to knowledge.

The tanzhaus nrw as a fitting resonance space

The tanzhaus nrw, with its focus on contemporary dance and performative formats, is an ideal place for this production. The Small Hall offers the proximity this format needs: concentrated, immediate, and without decorative distraction. The atmosphere promises a strong interplay of acoustics, light, and physical presence.

Why it's worth attending

4 Legs Good Remix is an evening for all who want to experience dance not only as movement but as thinking with the body. Claire Cunningham presents a highly reflective, artistically independent position that brings the audience and stage into a quiet, powerful dialogue. Anyone searching for contemporary dance art with attitude, depth, and sensuous precision should experience this performance live.
