Interplay: improvised encounters of dance and music

Posted on July 21, 2014 by Korhan Erel

interplayInterplay is an international meeting of nine dancers and musicians on the wonderful stage of Acker Stadt Palast, one of Berlin’e very special performance venues. Performance starts at 8:30pm. Coming early and chilling out in the lovely, quiet, cool inner courtyard before the performance is highly recommended!
