A dance film evening that reimagines the stage in the cinema hall
With Dance with!, the Ballet am Rhein in Düsseldorf opens a special space between stage experience and cinema evening: Four times this season, the company invites to a moderated dance film evening at the BAMBI Film Artistic Cinema. On 13.10.2026 at 19:00, dance history meets conversation culture, film art meets theatrical atmosphere.

When dance shines anew in the darkness of the cinema hall
The evening begins not with the familiar rising of a curtain, but with the subtle pull of the cinema. The audience leans back, the acoustics of the house carry images and movements with clear precision, while Ballet am Rhein presents its favorite films, documentaries, and works of film art. After that, the conversation follows in the cinema hall – approachable, intelligent, and open to questions. Exactly therein lies the charm of this format: It makes dance not only visible but readable. ([operamrhein.de](https://www.operamrhein.de/en/schedule/calendar/duesseldorf/dance-film/3877/))
Moderated, reflective, close to the company
The series presents dance as an art form with attitude. Instead of mere performance, a dialogue about movement, dramaturgy, and the perspectives of the dancers is formed. The moderation is provided by Juliane Schunke. According to the season brochure, the format is aimed at visitors aged 6 and above and combines education with aesthetic curiosity. Thus, a film evening becomes a cultural meeting format that broadens the view of the work of a company.

BAMBI: a program cinema with character and history
The venue itself contributes significantly to the atmosphere. The BAMBI at Klosterstraße 78 is one of the defining art house cinemas in Düsseldorf. The large hall has 133 seats, the small hall 66; the house is only partially accessible, but offers a ramp for wheelchair users. It is conveniently connected by subway, tram, and bus, with a short walk from the Klosterstraße stop. The cinema café and the restored foyer give the evening an intimate, cinematic warmth.
