If you want do be a Butoh-ka instead of doing Butoh, if you want to live Butoh instead of giving a ButohPerformance, if you want to devote yourself exclusively to Butoh instead of dabbling here and there then you are the perfect candidate for being part of MayuKan - DaniMayu ButohDance Company.
About
MayuKan - DaniMayu ButohDanceCompany was founded in January 2006. The members of this very first moment were Ria Probst, Gerwich Rozmyslowski and Bernhard Weiss. The Debut of the Company was in October 2006 at the Neue Buehne Villach with Siddhartha. The piece was created by a co-operation between DaniMayu and Bruno Strobl (Composer).
After a reorganization of the group the Company showed the piece Coin of Cabitoh at the Butoh-based DanceFestival 'Dance ga Mitai! 9' in Tokyo in July 2007. The new members were Caroline Heinecke and Anna Nowak.
From July 2008 until October 2019 the Company was left quiet.
DaniMayu continued working independently.
Left with one faithful member (Runa Hatariy) the company was revived from October 2019 On the occasion of DaniMayu's 20th anniversary in 2020. Eventually, a group of six formed around DaniMayu and Runa Hatariy - Jule, Michaela Mab, Stephanie Tietz, Theresa Grießenberger. Due to pandemic they performed PanD'orA only 2021 at Butohresque - Vienna Butoh Festival Vol. 3.
2023 DaniMayu and 3 remaining members started to work on a new piece called HiHime. An excerpt could be seen at Butohresque - Vienna Butoh Festival Vol. 4.
Currently DaniMayu is looking for new members who not only share the spirit of Butoh, but can feel it deeply. The members should be open to following the path of life of Butoh and dedicating their existence to the philosophy of Butoh.
