ELIAS KRAFT

I am a performer, dancer, entertainer primarily working with physical theatre, dance, movement and humor.
The corporal ways of expressing, communicating and conducting space and time has intrigued me more and more since starting dancing at the age of 16.I am a founding member of the group
Useless Machines that since 2022 has performed and taught workshops around Europe.I graduated from SEAD in Salzburg in 2022 and has since worked with Norrdans and ilDance. I have and is continously looking for places and spaces to enjoy the moment of sharing. Be it through dance or conversations.

As yet, Untitled is part of a series of solo works that has been a continuing stream of pieces, exploring and refining the action of the single performer on stage… its roots in soliloquy, monologue exposing the human state and inherent ways of being.
Decision making of what has happened and staying responsible for the action and non action taken during the solo puts the performer on the spot of making the most of what is.
This solo aims to put the rawness of performativity on the spot and invite the audience to the naked unexplored territory of walking on stage with only the self and the form of thoughts and body of the day.-The person who has done a turn is not the same person who has not done a turn
-The art of being guilty
-Spontaneity does not mean freedom
