In the past week, SIXFOLD was shown on RTL television in Luxembourg:
Anina Valle Thiele interviewed Elisabeth in regards to her Mudam performances on May 19th and 20th for the Luxembourger Land.
‘Contemporary dance for me is a platform where one can break away from the dualistic; the pure language of movement! That’s what I am looking for. I don’t want my pieces to be ‚about‘ something, but just ‚that they are‘. But I am still at the very beginning. It is a lifetime’s work to explore what this might be.‘

In regards to the Mudam performance of SIXFOLD the journalist Sophia Schülke led an interview with Elisabeth:
