Περιγραφή

A dance and music performance inspired by William Shakespeare’s A Midsummer Night’s Dream.

With regard to William Shakespeare’s work of the same title, additional dramaturgical material is drawn from its ending—namely, the idea of a play within a play—as well as from the broader theme of dreams as explored by the English poet, and consequently from the relationship between dreams and artistic creation.

Accompanied by acoustic and electric guitar, bass, drums, and voice, the five dancers perform sequences of movements in various combinations. The episodic choreography does not aim at a narrative representation of these references; rather, its primary expressive means is an intense and diverse movement vocabulary, in dialogue with short prose excerpts that introduce the audience to different parts of the performance. Ballet is juxtaposed and brought into dialogue with movements of all kinds, creating a distinctive language that harmonizes with the music and seeks complete focus on movement composition and on the control of the dancer’s instrument—the human body itself.
