Friedemann is delighted to announce that the documentary "FRIEDEMANN VOGEL - Verkörperung des Tanzes" will premiere on 10th April 2020 on German TV channel SWR and on the ARD Media Channel. With the "Dancer of the Year" constantly on the move, the 60-minute portrait by Katja Trautwein provides a dynamic insight into Friedemann's daily life, which revolves around rehearsals, performances, fashion shoots, and of course, travelling across the globe to dance on some of the world's most prestigious stages, in Stuttgart, Berlin, Stockholm, Moscow and Tokyo.

For over two weeks now, dancers of the Stuttgart Ballet have been allowed back in the dance studios to train in small numbers. Well aware of this being a rare privilege at a time when social distancing has made it very challenging for dancers to stay in shape or rehearse, Friedemann has been wondering how he can give back to the dance world, which has given him so much.
This beautiful “Dior & Dance” initiative has presented a wonderful opportunity, providing a virtual platform for ballet stars to teach voluntary classes, to encourage dancers to continue training even in confinement, while offering the wider public a glimpse of the daily life of a professional dancer.
Together with French choreographer Sébastien Bertaud, Friedemann is pleased to share this simple class and improvisation exercise, in the hope that his small contribution will send a message of positivity to his fellow dancers that they too, will one day return to their dance studios, and subsequently to the stage, to share their beloved art form with their audiences again.
It is always a privilege for a dancer to be part of a creation, and an absolute joy for Friedemann to share the stage again with Paris Opera Ballet étoile and Artistic Director of Rome Opera Ballet Eleonora Abbagnato for this new collaboration with the Rome Opera Ballet. Nuit Blanche, choreographed by French choreographer Sébastien Bertaud and costumes of which are designed by the Christian Dior fashion house, will have its world premiere on 29 March 2019 in Rome as part of a Philip Glass evening.
