Claire Vivianne Sobottke understands the stage as a place of resistance, a place to change and challenge the norms of contact and as a possibility to defend and rethink the human body. She studied acting in the Universität der Künste in Berlin, but has been working in very different contexts and collaborations. In 2014 she is supported with a scholarship from Berliner Senat. 2013 she was recipient of the DanceWEB scholarship at the ImPulsTanz Festival, Vienna.
