I Only Wanna Dance
Shortly after the fall of the Berlin Wall, the newly united city’s Senate declared the Palast unworthy of preservation. A protest ensued, with the ensemble staging a powerful demonstration at Rathaus Schöneberg.
Task
Creating and directing dance scenes for the German hit-series.
- From protest to breathtaking production number, this is how we turned the passion of that moment into something unforgettable.
- Creative consulting and show creation for Constantin Television’s Creative Departments, series director Uli Edel and cinematographer Hannes Hubach.
- Consulting on historical revue practice, and implications of staging this in a contemporary context.
- Advising on cultural references, aesthetics, and helping source costumes and props.
- PSM/DSM duties during the shooting.
