Lucky Trimmer #27 // 2019

19 – 20 April, 2019

Sophiensaele, Berlin

15 Year Birthday Celebration

2019 marks 15 years of LUCKY TRIMMER’s unwavering enthusiasm and unshakable perseverance. On this special occasion, our short format platform remains true to its penchant for creative diversity with a twist, and presents an avalanche of German premieres in a 10-minute format. What to expect: a Burtonesque bride, tango with a modern twist, a brain tease, a faun with its synchronized swimmers, an anti-overproduction manifesto, contemplative movements and gravity defying acrobatics
