Anne Teresa De Keersmaeker returned to the Odeon of Herodes Atticus with EXIT ABOVE – after the tempest, an electrifying blend of dance and live music. In this critically acclaimed work, thirteen performers explored the universal act of walking, intertwining it with the soulful rhythms of the blues. Featuring mesmerizing vocals by Meskerem Mees, sound wizardry by Jean-Marie Aerts, and guitar accompaniment by Carlos Garbin, the performance celebrated movement as a communal force, gradually building into a powerful, kinetic experience that engulfed the stage with boundless energy.
