Marc and Bettina speak about the early days of Bettina’s career in Frankfurt am Main and her personal history with dance, about dance as an art form and dancing as a political act, and about her long-term interest in the preservation of intangible dance heritage. Bettina talks about recent Art Meetings in which the entire ensemble has discussed important and relevant topics such as racism and participation, before going on to describe the delicate process of passing on roles.

Bettina Wagner-Bergelt took over the Artistic Direction of the Tanztheater Wuppertal Pina Bausch in January 2019.
