The co-production CRACKS by Pottporus and PACT Zollverein will premiere as part of the Street Dreams Festival on October 28, 2023: CRACKS deals with the major and urgent themes of flight and migration, being considered foreign and excluded, one's own body as a venue for discrimination, power relations in society, and dance and hip-hop. The renowned choreographer Rauf Yasit and the dancers of the Urban Arts Ensemble Ruhr take up these themes courageously, playfully and based on their own experiences. Between hip-hop art and contemporary dance, they ask how individual and collective scars of urban life pulse, drift and give pause.
