Saburo Teshigawara’s new solo work is an exploration of the body’s relation to its environment. Posed between emptiness and matter, darkness and clarity, imbalance and harmony, the piece is drawing from Japanese traditional dance and pursuing experimentations in search of a new form of abstract beauty.

Nina Laisné, Nestor 'Pola' Pastorive Como una baguala oscura
In Como una baguala oscura, Nina Laisné teams up with dancer and choreographer Nestor 'Pola' Pastorive in this musical and danced portrait of Argentinian pianist Hilda Herrera. With its exploration of the roots of popular and folk music, she brings us a lively show with the hallmark of freedom stamped firmly upon it.
Robyn Orlin, Garage Dance Ensemble, uKhoiKhoi …How in salts desert is it possible to blossom...
This piece is the fruit of the first encounter between Robyn Orlin and the iconic South African company Garage Dance Ensemble. The latter practices dance theatre which is committed to equality and social justice. In the company of performers from the Northern Cape region, she brings us a no-holds-barred performance that questions the origins of social violence.
Marcelo Evelin, Demolition Incorporada Uirapuru
In this piece, the choreographer Marcelo Evelin, from the north-east region of Brazil, invites us to set foot inside a metaphorical forest and its ecological condition. Through minimalist dance, and guided by the call of the legendary Uirapuru, a rare and endangered bird, six performers embody the promise of discovering what is and what still eludes our senses.
