SUMMARY:Christos Papadopoulos: Mellowing
DESCRIPTION:In his new production the Greek choreographer Christos Papadopoulos embarks on his inaugural collaboration with the dancers of the Dance On Ensemble\, a group that features performers aged more than 40. Incorporating their knowledge and experience into the creation\, together they explore moments of perception and intensities of the moment that create a lively restlessness\, a permanent vibration in which the spectator is inevitably involved … \nChristos Papadopoulos’ works are fed by an intensely observant approach to movement and often unfold with a lively and meditative power. His attention is focused on the minimal shifts of perception\, the perpetual\, often unnoticed and yet powerful movements that are ever-present in nature\, in everyday life\, within physical phenomena and political contexts. The result promises a memorable and perhaps profound experience. \nIn the theatre foyer at 7.30pm there’s a 20-minute Moving Introduction to the piece. This interactive session invites the audience to explore two to three movement approaches from the choreography – no dance experience is needed\, “just a bit of curiosity”. \nMellowing is presented in partnership with the Goethe-Institut Gulf Region. Use the code MELLOWING20 for a discount on the ticket price. \nAnd if you want more\, there’s a two-hour Choreographic Laboratory 40+ in the afternoon led by Laura Böttinger\, a senior dancer with the Dance On Ensemble. Again\, no prior experience is needed – just a willingness to explore movement. The workshop runs 4-6pm at the Cultural Foundation; it’s free\, but pre-register here.
