Constanza Macras | DorkyPark based in Germany is an incomparably extraordinary performing company in Europe. The unimaginable conflicts and combinations in all the elements of their works that involve not only dance but also theatre, songs, costume and stage design, as well as the frequent usage of texts, directly reflect the condition of contemporary society and communicates emotions and human essence to audience. The ever-cutting-edge company, with their innovative and humorous style, have also been active in site-specific performance and fashion shows.
