Transform 2023
Journey into a dark corner of a forest, where a group of disabled children are lost.
Or maybe they were abandoned – or perhaps are searching for something. Perhaps the woods, one day, simply grew around them. Our present tells us: things happen. All we have to do is to figure out if we can survive those things or not. What might unfold?
This gentle and evocative dance performance created by choreographer Chiara Bersani ponders the politics of our access to nature. Witness a mysterious and evocative environment, where sounds and gestures gradually evolve into a new language.
