Concept
“Kometentanz, Astrale Pantomime in zwei Aufzügen” or “Comet Dance, Astral Pantomime in two Acts”, is the ballet piece written by the German writer Paul Scheerbart in 1903. It is the narrative of an unsatisfied king, surrounded by his court with a poet, harem, magician, servants and an executioner. He is astonished by the presence of the comets, perhaps it is the only thing that makes him feel alive. The piece is a combination of cosmic objects with the human yearning of going beyond what is visible in the earth and communicating with celestial manifestations.
