Not only new talented choreographers will have a place at the competition. RIDCC presents RIDCC Brings Back: former participants who have developed significantly in recent years and with whom RIDCC feels a strong kinship will be given a place at the event. This year, choreographer duo Danae & Dionysios (XL Production winners 2018) will return with two site-specific performances on Schouwburgplein.
Napi, the girl and the bubble
In the afternoon, the choreographer duo will show a performance that is also suitable for young audiences, Napi, the girl and the bubble. The performance is inspired by the Japanese animated film My Neighbour Totoro by Hayoa Miyazaki. This choreography tells the story of a fascinating friendship between a girl and a mysterious but familiar creature. In the middle of a magical and real world, they meet and their journey begins there. With this performance, Danae & Dionysios seek to bring younger audiences closer to dance through play and movement.
The performance for children ages 6 and up can be seen on Friday and Saturday at 4 p.m. at Schouwburgplein.
Fάrιsa
At 7 p.m., choreographer duo Danae & Dionysios will show a second performance at Schouwburgplein. They will then present their latest work Fάrιsa. In Fάrιsa you will see two characters looking for connection and contact. This is because the piece was created during the pandemic and touching each other was more or less forbidden then. The performance is also about the human journey through life and our relationship with animals and nature. How do we deal with this and build relationships?
Come see the latest play by the 2018 XL Production Award winners at 7 p.m. on Friday and Saturday.
During RIDCC, talented choreographers from all over the world come to Rotterdam to show their duets to new audiences. During the duet competition, RIDCC provides an in-depth program for the choreographers. This allows them to attend workshops, master classes, network meetings and coaching sessions. This gives the choreographers access to the RIDCC network.
