An evening that shifts power, body, and perception
With Redshift — Tales of gaining power, on July 24, 2026, a dance and object theatre performance will take the stage at the Theater in der Kaffeetwete in Braunschweig, questioning the perspective on female power with sharp focus and physical presence. The production by tilted collective combines choreographic tension, object work, and an intense theatrical atmosphere into a concise stage experience.

When movement becomes a statement
The performance relies on a motif that immediately touches the soul: euphoria and fear, lightness and heaviness, conformity and boundary-crossing engage in a ritualized struggle. Alba Scharnhorst and Selina Glockner explore power from a female perspective, thereby opening a space where body acting, precision in timing, and the language of objects intertwine.

Dramaturgy between height of fall and departure
The signature of the production is evident in its condensation: no lengthy explanations, but images, impulses, and friction. According to the organizers, the piece invites the audience to shift their own perception of femininity and experience female power in its fragility as well as its brutality. The duration is approximately 45 minutes, and attendance is recommended from 16 years and up. ([rausgegangen.de](https://rausgegangen.de/events/redshift-tales-of-gaining-power-12/))
A game of light, body, and material
Also formally, much promise resonates here: light scenography, costume design, sound design, and choreography visibly interact. The artistic direction lies with Alba Scharnhorst and Selina Glockner; Thimo Kortmann is responsible for the lighting design, Isabell Wibbeke for the costume design, and Janna Berger and Kai Wenas for the music and sound level. Thus, a concentrated object theatre emerges, drawing its tension not from effects but from precisely placed shifts.

A venue close to the independent scene
The performance location is the Theater in der Kaffeetwete, also known as a former venue of the independent Braunschweig scene. The venue is located behind a passage in Kaffeetwete 4a and can be reached by public transport via the stops Altstadtmarkt and Radeklint; parking spaces can be found in the vicinity, some of which are paid. The box office opens one hour before the performance begins. ([theaterformen.de](https://www.theaterformen.de/Theaterformen_2024/barrierefreiheit.html/barrierefreiheit.html?utm_source=openai))
Why attending is worthwhile
Redshift — Tales of gaining power promises not an easily consumable theatre, but a dense, sensual, and intellectually open performance about power, body, and societal attributions. Those looking for contemporary dance theatre with a political undertone and strong imagery will experience an evening with resonance. Absolutely see it live.
