Yours, Young Spirit

by Julie Endo

The piece „Yours, Young Spirit“ was created by the Brazilian dancer Julie Endo in a very confusing, ambiguous and multioptional moment of her life. Having faced the end of her contract at Landestheater Linz, where she worked as a dancer for three seasons, she discovered herself as a creator and started her career as a choreographer, an artistic good-bye to her Austrian years. The title of the piece refers to a closing line of a letter that has never been written, the letter of a break up, the painful farewell occuring to two loving people, which, however, promises a new beginning.

At least, for Julie Endo this work indeed opened a new chapter of her life: after accomplishing the piece, she got accepted as a dancer at Theater Hagen. She moves to Germany, leaving behind her sorrow, doubts and confusion, and of course, „Yours, Young Spirit“: the choreography permitted by the feelings of anticipation and nostalgia, wild and lyrical tchau to the past.
