All things can disappear: a jacket, memories, earrings, people. Some things can be found again somewhere, others are lost forever. Like the wolf who visits the hen and cooks a stone soup with her. In the end he also disappears.
When a person dies there only remains a skeleton. Helen is one such skeleton. She likes it when people dance or sing for her. Then there are two other hairy creatures who say goodbye to one another. And will the pig sitting at the piano remain there until the last note has faded into silence?

The theme of for good is the fathomless inscrutability of life and things. The dancer’s movements are shaped by a great sense of peace. She dances in the midst of the audience and creates an atmosphere full of curious concentration.

Antje Pfundtner works as a dancer and choreographer and her productions have toured Europe and all over the world. In 2012 she was the first choreographer to receive a three-year support grant from the Hamburg cultural authority in order to set up her own company “Antje Pfundtner in Gesellschaft”. for good is her first play for children. It was inspired by the K3 Initiative, the Centre for choreography in Hamburg. Since it was set up in 2006 as a place for artistic communication and networking K3 has made a fundamental contribution to the dynamic, networked dance scene in Hamburg.
