At the club, on stage, when creating TikTok content or cooking a meal: if we hear a song we like, we all begin to dance! Sometimes we barely notice, but other times the feeling is so intense that we are oblivious to the world around us.

But why do we actually dance? What are the stories that we tell using our bodies? What is it that causes red faces, that attracts, irritates or thrills us when we see people dancing? The exhibition DANCE! will invite us to immerse ourselves in a world of rhythmical movement and allow ourselves to get carried away.
And without us even being aware of it, our heads begin to bop. Music very quickly causes us to move. If the song is right, it even becomes impossible not to move! Music seems to have a special power over us. Is that why some areas still have dancing bans on feast days?

We take a closer look and explore what makes us move, how dancing is linked to youth culture and why dancing makes us feel happy – and is therefore good for us. A moving tour with positive vibes in challenging times. DANCE!

The tour is offered in German, French and English.
