"I make dance pieces because I can think through everything that interests me"

Kareth Schaffer and Cathy Walsh are performers and makers living in Berlin. We met just after their season of Merkel, a dual performance of Angela Merkel and life sized cutouts of other world leaders to talk about the show, their process, the power of coming together and the skill of thinking together.
