This comedy dance-theatre duo shows the interactions between two unique individuals who try and live together on a beach with endless hours of sunshine. Will they manage it?
The dancers Helena Canas and Marc Lapuerta perform this show, derived from a solo show that Canas premièred in 2018 during the Maldà en Dansa programme. It has now become a duo act, which puts various situations that may occur on any day on the beach into movement.
This show takes its inspiration from a winter flower which, despite the cold, blossoms and stands out for its beautiful colours. It lives during a season that suggests solitude, sadness and darkness. This delicate piece features two women putting the limits of their bodies to the test by dancing with complicity, beauty, support and interdependence while overcoming obstacles.
This artistic intervention combines dance, acting, live music, training, community participation and interaction with the general public, with the aim of bringing dance to all kinds of audiences with rhythm, surprises and fun. It is a fusion of contemporary and urban dance, based on a battle (“danced combat”) performed by five strident characters of very diverse origins, who will fight to their last breaths in order to be the universal champions of movement art!
Cafuné presents two individuals struggling to grow together through a game of manipulation, caresses and disagreements. Together, but without ever losing their own essence, keeping their own individuality within the couple. This co-existence places the acrobatic duo in various situations where dance, circus and theatre come together with musical creation that reveals the performers' Balearic and Catalan roots.
Roberto G. Alonso takes us on a poetic and playful initiatory journey into the world of Maruja Mallo, the fascinating painter of the ‘27 generation. Her varied works, full of surrealist symbolism and disproportion, makes an ideal vehicle for connecting with the collective imagination of children. What better, then, than to turn her works into movement, to create an amazing visual show that awakens creativity among the very young?
Dansa Metropolitana is inviting children from various years at state-run primary schools in Badalona and Hospitalet to dance. Instructed by music and physical education teachers, and in coordination with dance and music teachers from the Escola Municipal de Música Centre de les Arts de l’Hospitalet (EMMCA) and a brass band from the Banda Simfònica de Badalona, students will be moving to the beat of jazz and pop-rock as well as classical and traditional music.
Kintsugi is a Japanese technique for repairing objects that dates back to the 15th century and a philosophy that considers cracks and repairs to be part of an object’s history and beauty, and not something to be hidden. Interested in new languages and the limits of movement, the Iron Skulls Co company immerses itself, through dance, in a search for the relationship between technique, beauty and imperfection.
