Bodies remember. They stumble, they repeat, they connect. From 12.–14.02.2026, a production that makes these processes tangible returns to HAU2. Glitch Witch is a dance performance by choreographer Meg Stuart, Damaged Goods, and the Dance On Ensemble. In this collective work, three women confront their past and dance their way through it. On stage, Meg Stuart, dancer Omagbitse Omagbemi, and composer Mieko Suzuki encounter one another in a gloomy, exhausted landscape that promises fertile ground for something new. Their movements are permeated by personal stories that cannot be shaken. Between hesitation and urgency, the three search for a shared language, forming a bond of solidarity. Gradually, a collective strength begins to emerge. Glitch Witch is a tentative state, a ritual of resistance and devotion, of disruption and cohesion. The work was created as part of Encounters, a collaboration between Meg Stuart and the Berlin Dance On Ensemble for dancers over 40. If you don’t feel like going home after the performance on Saturday (14.02.), simply stay under the spell. During the break at WAU, Mieko Suzuki will take over the DJ booth. Her sets of deep bass, drones, and crackling vinyl sounds carry the energy of the performance forward. The magic continues, and admission is free.
