La stella nascosta, our dance performance for children, is at Teatro Diego Fabbri in Forlì within Colpi di Scena, Biennale of contemporary theater for children and young people.
La stella nascosta is the result of a long process of artistic and pedagogical research on the dialogue between the world of childhood and the languages of contemporary dance. La stella nascosta is a performance with 4 young dancers selected specifically for this choreography, which accompany children and adults on a journey of discovery of beauty outside the canons and media clichés. Saul Daniele Ardillo worked for over a year with playwright Simone Giorgi and an extraordinary team of Reggio Children and Scuole e Nidi d’Infanzia – Istituzione del Comune di Reggio Emilia (scientific partners of the research process), measuring himself with the experience of Accademia Perduta | Romagna Teatri (co-producer) and especially with the gaze and creativity of children’s classes.

In the framework of Festival Aperto in Reggio Emilia, at Teatro Municipale Valli, preview of Don Juan, the new full-length production of Fondazione Nazionale della Danza / Aterballetto, conceived by Johan Inger.
The choreography is born from Inger’s desire to “face” Don Juan/Don Giovanni, an ancient and still contemporary, truly paradigmatic myth. Some of the works that inspired the choreographer are Tirso de Molina’s original comedy and the plays by Molière, Bertold Brecht and Suzanne Lilar. Inger, together with the playwright Gregor Acuña-Pohl, thoroughly read twenty-five different texts inspired by Don Juan.
This Don Juan features all the characters of the story, from Doña Elvira to Doña Ana to Zerlina and Masetto. The Don Juan is a Kammerspiel, where the dance is a magnifying glass for each of the characters revealing in a refined and clear way the inner world of men and women on stage.
At the end of the performance meeting with the choreographer Johan Inger and the critics Maria Luisa Buzzi.

The resident choreographer of the Fondazione Nazionale della Danza / Aterballetto, Diego Tortelli, designs a site-specific itinerant performance for some of the beautiful rooms of the Teatro Valli.
A tribute to a special place in the city of Reggio Emilia, a sign of artistic vitality in one of the most difficult periods experienced by the citizens and a reaffirmation of the central importance of the collaboration between two of the major Italian cultural institutions, I Teatri and Aterballetto.
Tortelli starts from the suggestions of light and colors of four extraordinary rooms of the Foyer of Valli and imagines a choreographic and musical path, which will bring together the public around the work Domus Aurea by visual artist Massimo Uberti, set design for the first creation of Tortelli for Aterballetto, a bright design of an ideal house within the context of an Ideal City.
For the occasion, Aterballetto will present the premiere of Another story, the new duet by Tortelli. The poetic cue from which his research starts is a gesture as simple as it is rich in complex, emotional and social nuances. The hug. It is no coincidence that one of the gestures lost, during the unusual flow of these months.
The evening is completed with some excerpts from Domus Aurea, choreography within the 2018 Bach Project diptych, and the rearrangement for two dancers of Aterballetto by Inter-view: Emanuele and Clément, presented at Fotografia Europea 2019.

Project for a house of light, Massimo Uberti

THE PERFORMANCE IS CANCELLED.
Aterballetto dances at the Teatro Toniolo in Mestre BLISS/Secus: the perfect evening to admire the versatility of the 16 dancers of Aterballetto, the only Italian company to have in its repertoire two of the most intense and acclaimed choreographers on the international scene.
The curtain opens on the light of BLISS, a masterpiece by Johan Inger to the notes of Keith Jarrett’s Koln Concert.
BLISS is a dance that emanates happiness and above all life. A joy for the performers, who surrender to the music without any resistance, and for the public, who can admire the maturity and skill of each dancer.
Secus is a creation by Ohad Naharin that boasts a musical collage that extends from the unusual electronic styles of AGF to the seductive Indian melodies of Kaho Naa Pyar Hai to the resonant harmonies of the Beach Boys. This adventurously eclectic mix serves as a suitable backdrop for the boldly extravagant choreography. Under our unbelieving eyes, we compose a human alphabet made up of races, solos, clear and clean gestures, interrupted duets, which, through precise and sudden kicks, sinuous disarticulations of the hips, torsos that bend in all directions like rubber to be shaped, expresses pure emotions and feelings without becoming sentimental. Joy, vulnerability, fear, innocence, confusion and anger weave a harmonious and dynamic canvas that oscillates between delicacy and exaggeration.

Don Juan
2021-03-11 19:30 - 21:10 | Stadttheater Schaffhausen, Herrenacker 23, Schaffhausen, 8200, Svizzera
Performance cancelled

Aterballetto dances in Schaffhausen, Switzerland, Don Juan, the new full evening production by Johan Inger.
The choreography comes from Inger’s desire to confront Don Juan, a paradigmatic myth that is both ancient and still contemporary. The original comedy by Tirso de Molina, Molière, Bertold Brecht and the play by Suzanne Lilar are just some of the sources of inspiration: Inger and playwright Gregor Acuña-Pohl consulted twenty-five different texts inspired by the character.
In the creation we find all the characters of the story, from Donna Elvira to Donna Anna to Zerlina and Masetto. Don Juan can be considered a Kammerspiel, with its ability to emphasise nuances and emotions: and in the case of this creation, dance becomes a magnifying glass for the individual characters, subtly but clearly revealing the inner world of the men and women on stage.
