Rhythmus is a tap dance and rhythm performance that shows the special aspects of tap dance. Rhythmus is bringing to the stage references from the performances of legendary tap dancers a hundred years ago, but also looking for something new – we see tap as a moving and energetic dance, but we also hear it as a musical style.
The performance looks at this through two characters, one with an anxiety disorder and the other with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). How do they manage to keep their disorders under control and help each other overcome difficulties through music and dance?
