What does life sound like? In »Unseen Horses«, Greek dancer and emerging choreographer Ioanna Paraskevopoulou delves deep into the lives of the DTH dancers. Their personalities, challenges, and moments of joy become tangible through video projections and live soundscapes. Inspired by Foley artists, the dancers create live sound effects on stage for their filmed scenes in real time—using a microphoned stage construction and a variety of materials.

To accompany this multisensory dance piece, we present a DTH film featuring all interviews that Ioanna Paraskevopoulou conducted with the dancers—an exclusive opportunity to get to know Dance Theatre Heidelberg more intimately. Additionally, we will screen the eight-minute documentary short film »Track Stars: The Unseen Heroes of Movie Sound« (1979), which served as a key inspiration for Ioanna Paraskevopoulou and sparked her fascination with Foley—the art of creating sound effects.
