When is the formation of a personal identity complete? Do I meet certain standards and do I want to meet them at all? What do you mean when you talk about my future?

Three dancers meet – being young together, knowing answers and having even more questions. The dance piece “helm – tomaten – und erwachsen” (helm – tomatoes – and grown up) is an attempt by young people to deal with the present state. Raw and intuitive, the dancers take the space to negotiate powerlessness and power on stage. Flying fish next to frustrated fists fight with and against excessive demands.
