STORIES – When every step tells a story
In the Theater am Marientor, tap dance transforms on December 1, 2026, into a pulsating total work of art. STORIES – THE TAP DANCE SENSATION combines virtuoso footwork, captivating rhythms, and an energetic stage language into an extraordinary live experience.
Tap dance as driving dramaturgy
Here, music is created not only in the orchestra pit but directly under the feet of the dancers. Every strike sets an impulse, and every change of rhythm advances the narrative. The production tells stories without long explanations and makes the body an instrument.
International dance art with Parisian roots
The RB Dance Company, whose artists gained fame as finalists in the French TV show France’s Got Talent, brings its celebrated tap dance sensation on tour in Germany for the first time. After sold-out performances in Paris, London, and Berlin, the production now visits Duisburg.
A stage experience full of tempo and precision
The choreography thrives on the contrast between explosive energy and precisely placed movements. In the theater atmosphere of the Marientor, acoustic precision, physical presence, and the tension of the live moment intersect. The set design supports the rhythm, while light moods frame the individual stories like cinematic scenes.
Proximity to the audience and grand show moments
STORIES focuses on the diversity of tap dance and simultaneously brings its tradition into a modern, internationally comprehensible stage language. The art of the body, the dynamics of the group, and the immediate acoustics of the steps generate an audience reaction that remains physically palpable from the first beat.
Conclusion: Visitors can expect a highly concentrated stage experience between dance show, concert, and visual theater art. Those who want to not just see tap dance but experience it as a rhythmic force should secure their place at the Theater am Marientor.
