About the performance
The project Cracks in the Wood exists out of two parts – a performance and a concert.
In the performance Cracks in the Wood Maria Madeira creates a retrospective of her history in movement. She draws upon her the repertoire of her own body and what her body remembers. Key components are tapdance, ballet and acrobatics as she was schooled in all three. While looking at her moving portrait traces of musicality, violence and control reverberate.
In Cracks the Concert, Maria Madeira collaborates with Thijs Van Scharen around the pure musicality of tapdance in conversation with drums. As the title suggests it will be an experimental concert combining tap dancing, drumming, voice and percussion among other elements. This concert will be played/performed in duo by Maria and Thijs Van Scharen, and it will be played both in connection to Cracks in the Wood but as well in other contexts more connected to music.
