Meg Stuart & Doug Weiss with Mariana Carvalho
All the Way Around
- Music
- Dance
60 mins.
Any dancer at the level of Meg Stuart is bound to collect an immense, mysterious, and sometimes monstrous reservoir of body memories over the course of their life. The ballad – a song of longing and defiance – is the main starting point for this intimate dance concert, based on improvisation. Accompanied by jazz bassist Doug Weiss and pianist Mariana Carvalho, the European-American choreographer embarks on a journey into movement and sound. Together, they strip down songs into small, meaningful gestures. The light design by Emese Csornai becomes a fourth player, adapting to unpredictable elements in each venue. In “All the Way Around”, Meg Stuart, who has played a key role in shaping contemporary dance since the 1990s, provides deep insight into the structures of her unique way of thinking about movement. She plays the range of her emotional body, going with and against the nostalgia and lyricism of the ballad form, riding the waves between the almost remembered and the unknown.

Latest information for arrival:
There is currently a construction site on Hallesches Ufer between Wilhelmstraße and Möckernbrücke underground station. There is a divided replacement route for pedestrians (right) and cyclists (left), which are separated by a yellow ground line. The carriageway is narrowed to one lane.
Travelling to HAU2 via U Hallesches Tor:
If you are coming from Hallesches Tor underground station, you will have to use an alternative footpath from Wilhelmstraße / Hallesches Ufer junction, which is separated from the carriageway by a construction fence – the actual footpath is currently closed. Please note: the alternative route is also used by cyclists. Pedestrians should keep to the right. We therefore currently recommend that visually impaired or blind visitors come to the HAU with an accompanying person.
Arrival HAU2 via U Möckernbrücke:
When you leave Möckernbrücke underground station, please stay on the footpath on the canal side until you reach Hallesches Ufer / Großbeerenstraße junction – the opposite side is currently closed due to construction work.
