DON JUAN

The CCN/Aterballetto at the prestigious Festival de Granada presents the full-length evening performance Don Juan, choreographed by Johan Inger.

The performance is in collaboration with the Directorate General for Public and Cultural Diplomacy of the Italian Ministry of Foreign Affairs and International Cooperation and the Italian Cultural Institute of Madrid

The choreography stems from Inger’s desire to explore Don Giovanni, a paradigmatic myth both ancient and still contemporary. The original comedy by Tirso de Molina, Molière, Bertolt Brecht, and the theatrical work of Suzanne Lilar are just some of the sources of inspiration: Inger and dramaturg Gregor Acuña-Pohl consulted twenty-five different texts inspired by the character.

All the story’s key figures are featured in the piece, from Donna Elvira to Donna Anna to Zerlina and Masetto. Don Juan can be considered a Kammerspiel, with its focus on nuance and emotion: in this creation, dance becomes a magnifying glass on each character, subtly yet clearly revealing the inner world of the men and women on stage.
