Performance
Hands Made
Begüm Erciyas
March 15 – 16, 2025

Show
RI TE
Marlene Monteiro Freitas, Israel Galván
March 19 – 20, 2025
ITALIAN PREMIERE
RI TE stems from the encounter between two seemingly distant worlds, united by rhythm and the ability to combine tension with fiery expressiveness: a moment of pure joy and humor, using only body language, in the surprise of improvisation and mutual discovery.
Performance
Fare polvere primo incontro
Enrico Malatesta, Yasmine Hugonnet
March 22 – 23, 2025
Padiglione Chiaravalle / Terzo Paesaggio

In this work, the two artists question the distinction between dance and music, sound and body, exploring the creative possibilities that can arise from these two elements listening to each other.
Show
Sahara
Claudia Castellucci / Compagnia Mòra
March 22 – 23, 2025
Claudia Castellucci’s choreographic and philosophical research grapples with the dimension of the desert, where the extreme lack of materials and relationships pushes dance to consider only what one has: oneself, as the only—first and last—instrument.

Raffaella Giordano, Stefania Tansini
March 29 – 30, 2025
Teatro Out Off
