Synopsis

The Israeli Eyal Dadon and the Italian Diego Tortelli leads the sixteen dancers of Aterballetto on a journey through the childish exoticism of the former and the positive youthfulness of the latter.

Yeled which means child in Hebrew – by Dadon is a danced reflection on the loss of primal innocence. An investigation aimed at finding out when this change occurred, but also directed at discovering what is left of our ability to remain small in a world made only for grown-ups. When was the point when we lost our innocence and why?

Shoot me is a creation by Tortelli on the music by the English rock band Spiritualized and on some recordings of Jim Morrison. Music and dance are combined to create a piece without a story, which opens imaginaries and emotions. A work that wants to create a direct dialogue between the dancers on stage and the audience: a game of seduction, of looks, of sweat, an assault on the senses and an ode to the body, to breathing the same air, sweat, tears, fury, pride.

The cooperation partner of the performance is the Italian Cultural Institute of Budapest.
