Moving in November 2026 Michael Turinsky: Precarious Moves

Continuing his investigation of resistant choreographic positionings, Michael Turinsky returns to Moving in November with the solo performance Precarious Moves. Both autobiographical and conceptual, Precarious Moves centers on questions of Turinsky’s personal as well as urgent collective needs and necessities concerning mobility and mobilization, from a physically disabled perspective. Exploring the tensions between movement and environment, gesture and milieu, Turinsky opens our sensitivity beyond the standardized ideas of time, distance, and measure. The solo unfolds as ironic, intellectual, and playful, oscillating between the organic and the organized. It brings forth a searching movement—an exploration of the strange connection between the body and the sensuous world it moves through—in which the deviating gesture discovers its choreographic milieu.

Turinsky’s solo Work Body was presented in the frame of Moving in November in 2025 in Stoa.
