AHA Collective: Sweat Set

Next performance: 8. march 2025, NEXTFEST
@Trafó House of Contemporary Arts

Sweat Set seeks the revolutionary power of movement, through the memory of emblematic choreographies, fuelled by a sense of passion and liberation.

The AHA Collective is launching a new series of site-specific performances, which will consist of loosely structured events with different themes and more space for improvisation. Each performance will be titled „… Set”, of which three will be produced this year. The „Sets” will be smaller scale, more informal productions that are part of a larger whole.
In the series the collective is working with instant decisions and short but intense creative processes. The performances created are typically structured (pre-arranged, i.e.set), but within that, performers are present individually, with their own decisions and work on the given topic through improvisation. „Sets” are opportunities for the development of collective dynamics and help the AHA members discover creative and performative situations yet unknown.

Sweat Set focuses on the preconceptions surrounding dance. It deals with stereotypical approaches to liberty, passion, and physical beauty. Through the memories of emblematic choreographies, the creators explore how to evoke the revolutionary power that movements can possess while seeking a personal and universal connection with dance.
