In a plush ballroom from a bygone era dance partners come together. They meet as strangers in this anachronistic setting, supposedly for the first time, and yet they seem to have known each other for decades. What unites them is a belief in militant, revolutionary campaigns, but they are all so incompatible with one another, that they are doomed to failure. So the dancing terrorists are only complicit in their yearnings for long-lost radical causes, far removed from reality. Greek theatre collective BLITZ is one of the most exciting new voices on the European theatre scene. With Schaubühne actors they will develop an evening in which each member of the cast is author, director, actor and dramaturg. From this anarchic basis a political revue unfolds in the form of a bizarre Argentinian milonga whose rules of agitation and mise-en-scène are derived from the rituals of the dance.
