Grey Zone / Old Land: A gripping ballet evening about change, closeness, and society
On May 26, 2026, the Staatstheater Augsburg transforms the brechtbühne in the Gaswerk into a vibrant resonance space for contemporary dance. Two handwritings, one evening: 'Old Land' by Sasha Riva & Simone Repele and 'Grey Zone' by Antonio Ruz distill relationships, maturity, and societal tensions into an intense event experience.
Two Choreographies, a common thread
'Old Land' traces the aging process in touching duets – tender, honest, close. 'Grey Zone' broadens the perspective and illuminates the gray areas of our coexistence: ambiguous, multifaceted, alive. The dramaturgical framework ensures clear target audience engagement – from dance lovers to curious first-timers.
Sensual stage, precise event management
The historic industrial ambiance of the brechtbühne in the Gaswerk meets modern stage and lighting design. Set design, organization, and visitor guidance intermesh – from arrival to cloakroom – for seamless event planning and a concentrated audience atmosphere.
Artistic handwritings, excellent team
With choreographer Antonio Ruz ('Grey Zone') and the duo Sasha Riva & Simone Repele ('Old Land'), highly regarded artistic positions come together. Stage and lighting (among others, Felix Weinold, Louise Flanagan, Alexander Cappek) create a clear, contemporary appearance – ideal for a focused event experience.
Convenient arrival, accessible entrances
The venue is easily accessible by public transport, shuttle, and car. A parking garage is located directly opposite, pathways are short, access points are barrier-free – for a relaxed arrival and a confident show start.
