Bat Dances

Kareth Schaffer & Jonas Hauer

© Mayra Wallraff

How do different animal species perceive and experience the world — and how could dance contribute an answer to this question? In “Bat Dances”, choreographer Kareth Schaffer and composer Jonas Hauer create a work that offers an aesthetically coherent experience for seeing, blind, and visually impaired audiences. Their first collaboration is a danced monologue from the perspective of a bat, cautiously juxtaposing its movement patterns to those of humans. With the solo performer Leah Katz, the use of echolocation, and gentle humour, they weave an interspecies fable that helps us to navigate the reality of environmental doom.
