Guest Performance
“This is the flower of a Partisan, died for freedom.”
A contemporary dance piece about humanity and humanness, inspired by the Italian folk song Bella Ciao.
Stimulus, game
Reaction, dependency
Presence, empathy
Freedom, animalityThe beyond.
Dance Theatre MD’s Aliveness for two dancers breathes, gasps, and continually redefines itself. This duet draws influence from its environment and offers abstract commentary on the global political situation. Sketches of the piece, choreographed by Mari Rosendahl, have been performed in various spaces—each affecting the atmosphere and tone of Aliveness.
