On September 18, 2025 at 7:30 pm, the story of the pioneering dancer and choreographer Marie Sallé will come to life at Tanzfaktur Köln. This event invites visitors to experience Sallé's historical choreographies in a unique dialog with contemporary dance. In her time, Sallé transcended the socially imposed boundaries for female dancers by revolutionizing artistic and narrative forms of expression on stage.
The performance will be accompanied by music by famous composers such as Handel and Rameau, which will be presented in a new chamber music version. The combination of historical and contemporary dance art creates a harmonious but also contrasting symbiosis that emphasizes the historical heritage and creative diversity of this art form. This performance is not only a tribute to a pioneer of modern dance, but also a discourse on the ongoing connections between past and present.
