Interview with Anne Martin, 20/2/2019 (2/2)
The dancers of the Tanztheater Wuppertal, like in many other German theatres were required to also perform in other productions as well, notably Opera and Musicals. Pina Bausch was able to eventually change these conditions, freeing her dancers to concentrate in the dance work. Anne Martin relates the process of creating pieces to both, the pulse of their time and her personal experiences. Gebirge, Viktor, Ahnen are commented in this interview. How her artistic interests developed after she left the company, immersed herself in music making, and eventually refound dance and teaching is described in the last part of this second day of interviews.
The interview was conducted in German and is available in English translation.
