First performances of the 2023/24 season
September promises an exciting new season for those who love contemporary dance, creativity and artistic experimentation.
The National Choreographic Centre / Aterballetto opens the 2023/24 season by inaugurating the prestigious festival Le Temps d’Aimer la Danse in Biarritz, showing two performances at Palazzo Schifanoia for the Contemporary Dance Festival of the Teatro Comunale in Ferrara, and inviting everyone to Festa della Danza in Reggio Emilia.
Aterballetto flies to Biarritz and opens the festival Le Temps d’Aimer la Danse.
On stage:
- 8 September | Théâtre de la Gare du Midi – Biarritz: Yeled by Eyal Dadon and Shoot me by Diego Tortelli
- 10 September | Espace Culturel Larreko – Saint-Pée-sur-Nivelle: Storie by Diego Tortelli and Philippe Kratz
- 10 September | Lekuona Fabrika – Errenteria – Pays Basque Sud: Storie by Diego Tortelli and Philippe Kratz
On 8 September, the company offers an open rehearsal to the Festival audience in the Public Gardens in Biarritz.
Once again this season the National Choreographic Centre / Aterballetto is a guest of the Contemporary Dance Festival | Interno Verde Danza, an event curated by the Teatro Comunale Claudio Abbado in Ferrara.
On 9 and 10 September, in the Renaissance rooms of Palazzo Schifanoia, dancers Edoardo Brovardi and Vittoria Franchina will recreate the atmosphere of Andy Warhol’s legendary “Factory” with Yes, Yes… by Diego Tortelli. This performance will be joined by SoaC by Federica Galimberti (who also directs) and Cristiano Buzzi (Kris), to music by Bach, Tommaso Ussardi and Giuseppe Franchellucci, who will play them on the cello. Two extraordinary dancers use the hip hop technique in its countless declinations to create a poetic and powerful performance. The choreography is a co-production with Orchestra Senzaspine.
The Festa della Danza is a special invitation to the city of Reggio Emilia.
On 16 and 17 September we will open the halls of the Fonderia to meet the dancers of Aterballetto one by one and discover with director Gigi Cristoforetti the new artistic adventures of the National Choreographic Centre.
We will experience a marathon of performances that join different languages in a spectacular way: from classical ballet to hip hop to contemporary dance. Thanks to the collaboration with Dinamico Festival, directed by Elena Burani, we will be surprised by the acrobatics of extraordinary circus artists: we will all be amazed!
Finally, we invite everyone, from children to the elderly, to take part in the dance party at the skate park in Piazzale Europa.
An opportunity to have fun and celebrate the start of the 2023/24 season together.
