May 30 - ArtDance International Variety Gala Night
The second edition of next month's ArtDance festival will close with an international variety gala night on Friday 29th June.
The show will start with a welcoming by GAMPA followed by local dance schools Art In Movement, DANZA Academy, Gibraltar Academy of Dance, Innovations and ShowDance Company showcasing their work alongside world famous international acts.
Organisers are also proud to announce the eagerly sought after ‘Humanhood’ (UK) will be taking to the stage with their ground-breaking piece ‘Zero’, which explores the complex relationship between memory and time.
The most famous breakdancer in the World, Red Bull BC One Champion Bboy Neguin (Brazil) will be sharing a new film with us. Iron Skulls Co (Barcelona) will be bringing their entire company with them this year and performing their piece “Sinestesia” a performance of urban dance, hiphop and contemporary dance, which they have been touring the world with.
Proyecto Larrua (Spain) will be performing an all male dance duo, which merges together physical language and emotional landscapes within the different ways of movement and performance. Professional circus act aerialist and contortionist and runner up in Italy’s Got Talent, Marco Motta (Salvador) will leave you breathless with his unique movement style.
These international artists are used to touring around the world performing at major festivals, theatres and television and this year they will leave their footprint on the Rock. An inspiring event not to be missed by dancers, artists and theatregoers!
A spokesperson said: “We take pride in hosting an event that is not competitive but educational and thought-provoking in an environment that celebrates the arts.”
The event’s main sponsor is CASAIS.
