Slipping Under

Slipping Under is a raw and intense duet by choreographer Niek Wagenaar, created for and in collaboration with the Rotterdam based dance company Conny Janssen Danst.

This gripping performance makes toxic power dynamics within a relationship tangible. The duet shows how dependence and desire become intertwined. How you can be addicted to something you know is harmful to you.

Niek Wagenaar draws inspiration for his work from the complexity of human behavior and inner struggle. In Slipping Under, he brings the audience close to the dancers. A dance full of tension, surrender, and the resistance against slipping under.
