Dance with! at Bambi: An evening where dance becomes film art
When the Ballet am Rhein invites to the art-house cinema BAMBI, stage passion meets the special intimacy of the cinema. Dance with! promises a moderated evening that combines film images, conversation, and the world of the company into a vibrant stage experience for dance lovers in Düsseldorf.
A format between screen and live stage
Four times during the season, a space for dance, memory, and exchange opens up at BAMBI. The audience takes their seats in the cinema hall, experiences selected dance films, documentaries, and cinematic works of the company, and then engages in conversation with the participants. This blend of projection and presence creates a theater atmosphere that seeks closeness rather than distance.
Ballet art to feel
Ballet am Rhein has been one of the prominent ensembles in the German-speaking area for years and has been awarded the title Company of the Year multiple times by the critics' survey of the magazine tanz. For this reason, a format like Dance with! gains special significance: it not only shows movement but also conveys the artistic attitude behind the movement. For the audience, the film evening provides a glimpse behind the scenes of dramaturgy, rehearsal work, and repertoire.
Bambi as a suitable venue
Bambi on Klosterstraße combines the tradition of art-house cinema with a characterful hall, featuring 133 seats in the large hall and 66 seats in the small hall. The interior decoration with the round starry sky and the restored rooms give the evening an unmistakable framework. The acoustics and the intimate size of the venue enhance the impact of the format, where conversations and audience reactions also find their place.
Moderation, conversation, exchange
Through the moderation of Juliane Schunke, the evening gains structure and rhythm. Not the quick punchline, but precise observation takes center stage: Which images shape dance? Which films accompany the dancers? And how does a company speak about its artistic practice? This is exactly where the strength of this evening unfolds as a culturally grounded pre-reporting for the upcoming performance.
Visitor services
Tickets are available exclusively through the BAMBI art-house cinema. The venue is well connected by public transport; the Klosterstraße stop is just a few steps away. A special ramp is available for wheelchair users, but the restrooms are not barrier-free. Those who want to experience the evening with a touch of cinema and theater flair will find a charming address in the heart of Düsseldorf.
Conclusion: Dance with! combines dance film, conversation culture, and ballet proximity into a special evening for all who want not just to see, but to understand stage art. Anyone who wants to experience dance in an inspiring, approachable form should not miss this live event at Bambi.
