“…a highlight of the program” The New York Times.
“Sher-Machherndl’s movement style, reminiscent of William Forsythe, seems to deliberately accentuate his length and angularity, which becomes striking in combination with his clear center and precise technique.” Dance Enthusiast
Meet this dynamic Viennese contemporary ballet choreographer as he takes the audience on a personal journey reflecting the vision of his soul, as he juxtaposes ballet vocabulary, pedestrian movement and human gesture. His work reflects upon the human condition, examining themes on alienation, isolation and deep connection.
