This is a dance of touch. The work exists in the active, tactile, engaged negotiation between performer and audience - in their tacit agreement and understanding. Arranged in an ellipse, the audience themselves form the bounds of the theatrical space. This is a journey that, by definition, performer and audience discover and create together. 

For this iteration, Vera Tussing is restaging The Palm of Your Hand #3 for the first year BA Dance and Choreography students situated in Copenhagen, at the København Danser Studios. 

The performance is based on The Palm of Your Hand (2014) and the work is registered with SACD in Belgium. See https://www.veratussing.net/palm-of-your-hand2

  • Standing for up to one hour is part of the performance experience. Audience members are therefore expected to stand; however, seating is available for those who need it, including wheelchair users. Not suitable for children under 5.
  • This performance involves some touch - usually just The Palm of Your Hand. All encounters of direct body to body physical touch in this show are voluntary and always up for negotiation.
