Christos Papadopoulos: Mellowing

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 over 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 …

Christos 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.

It is presented in partnership with the Goethe-Institut Gulf Region.
