Contemporary dance enthusiasts will have the opportunity to enjoy inspiring performances that reflect the various movements of contemporary choreographic art, building bridges between Cyprus and the global stage. The festival\u2019s performances will run from May 31 to June 23, offering a multidimensional artistic approach and highlighting the innovation and creativity of the choreographers.<\/p>\n
The first event is Susanna Fiala\u2019s performance, installation and exhibition AiNA which will take place at Rialto Theatre at 8.30pm. On June 4, Arno Schuitemaker from the Netherlands will present The End \u2013 part 2 at Rialto while on June 10, Andreas Constantinou from Denmark\u2019s Himherandit Productions will present Carcass. The same performance will be shown in front of Nicosia audiences on June 12.<\/p>\n Linda Kapetanea and Jozef Fru\u010dek from Greece will present the Rootlessroot performance on June 14 in Limassol and on the following night in Nicosia. AMAE, an Italian-Croatian and Belgian production will be shown on June 16 at 8.30pm while at 9.30pm, Alessandro Sciarroni\u2019s Save the Last Dance for Me will be presented. The final performance will be Larsen C by Christos Papadopoulos on June 23.<\/p>\n Apart from the performances, the festival collaborates with the Cyprus New Movement of Dance<\/strong> to host a workshop led by the distinguished choreographers Eliana and Borna. The Theatrical Body workshop will take place on June 17 and will be based on physical theatre exploration, on the connection between intention\/emotion and movement. Participants will be encouraged to further investigate their own individuality through different improvisation tasks and games.<\/p>\n \u201cTo expand our performativity and creativity,\u201d say workshop organisers, \u201cwe will practice two approaches that are equally valid for a creative process: physicality evoking intention or emotion\/thought embodiment. For this purpose, we will explore different tools. The main focus will be on researching different physical qualities and textures, and seeing how we can further implement them into partnering. Through a playful and open environment, we will challenge our movement habits and develop a strong sensibility for detail and authenticity in physicality.\u201d<\/p>\n 25th Cyprus Contemporary Dance Festival<\/strong><\/p>\n Dance performances from Cyprus and abroad.
