Hannah Chioma Ekezie

Hannah-Chioma Ekezie sammelte bereits im Alter von sieben Jahren ihre ersten Bühnenerfahrungen im Kinderchor der Bayerischen Staatsoper. Dieser frühe Kontakt mit Performance, Schauspiel und Gesang weckte in ihr eine Leidenschaft für die Bühne, die sie seither intensiv verfolgt.

Von ihrem zehnten bis fünfzehnten Lebensjahr war Hannah Teil der beliebten Kinderserie «Kika Tanzalarm». In dieser Zeit hatte sie die Möglichkeit, weitere Gesangsstile auszuprobieren. Heute sind ihre bevorzugten Musikgenres Jazz, Soul und R&B. 

Parallel dazu entfachte ihre Teilnahme an der Serie auch eine starke Begeisterung für das Tanzen. Mit elf Jahren begann Hannah intensiv Tanzunterricht in verschiedenen Tanzschulen zu nehmen. Ihr Training umfasste eine breite Palette von Stilen, angefangen von Jazz, Ballett und Contemporary bis hin zu Hip-Hop, Streetstyle, Heelsdance und Voguing. 

Voguing, ein Tanzstil, der in der Ballroom Culture entstanden ist, spielt eine besondere Rolle in Hannahs Leben. Seit fünf Jahren ist sie Teil dieser Kultur und tritt in der Kategorie «Face» an. Die Community gibt ihr ein Gefühl von Freiheit und Geborgenheit und ermöglicht es ihr, ihre extravagante und expressive Seite auszuleben.

Aktuell unterrichtet Hannah in der Tanzschule STEP BY STEP in München und steht regelmäßig auf der Bühne, unter anderem im Residenztheater und den Kammerspielen. 2024 stand Hannah unter anderem für die Kinofilmadaption des Bestsellers «22 BAHNEN» unter der Regie von Mia Maariel Meyer vor der Kamera und übernimmt vermehrt Rollen in Film- und Fernsehproduktionen.

The legendary musical «Cabaret» entices us into the dazzling world of the Kit Kat Club in the 1930s. Every night the enigmatic Sally Bowles thrills the audience with her famous song «Life is a Cabaret», a celebration of decadence and diversity. The young American Clifford Bradshaw is caught up in this intensely sensual world. Yet, at the same time, something dark is becoming an ever-stronger presence in the daily lives of these exuberant fun-lovers.

But the deeper she immerses herself in the dazzling dream world, the more the boundaries between reality and fiction become blurred.

At Whitsun the lion king Nobel invites his subjects to his court for an early summer celebration. The entire animal kingdom gathers – ranging from the crane to the wolf and the bear. Only one animal is missing: the fox called Reineke. As soon as his name his mentioned, the mood of harmony vanishes. One angry accusation follows another and Reinike the fox is charged in his absence with a series of incredible crimes. The cockerel, for example, complains of losing his wife and children – Reineke ate them for supper. When he is eventually put on trial, the accomplished liar – an animal equivalent of Ibsen’s Peer Gynt – manages to pull the wool over everyone’s eyes – man, woman or creature – and slip his neck out of the noose. Eventually he even acquires a whole crowd of followers and is elected Chancellor.

 

The moral of the story is that not everyone with foxy cunning and a talent for oratory puts those gifts to benevolent use – on the contrary! But how can we tell the difference between truth and lies? How can we avoid being taken in by the peddlers of fake news? How can we remain faithful to our own opinions and values?
