[Bauhaus stage Dessau, conceived and directed by Oskar Schlemmer, choreography created in collaboration with Manda v.

Scheper: "... it was not only until spring 1928 that the project could be realized. Schlemmer then co-operated with ballet mistress Manda v. Kreibig, who just had come to the Bauhaus stage. At the Festival of Dance in Essen, in 1928, she performed the Staves Dance (Stäbetanz) for the very first time."* [209, p. 196]
