Performance description
Ten dancers explore and celebrate their common identity through physical and intuitive dance accompanied by live drums and electronic music. Marco de Silva Ferreira's sensual and enchanting choreography is based on well-known dance steps, inspired by club parties and balls
What role does individuality play in the community building process? What is the identity driver? What bodies pass through the world? World-renowned choreographer Marco de Silva Ferreira poses these profound questions about our world and cultural belonging through spontaneous, intuitive and sensual dance in the production of Carcass*.
Ten dancers, each distinct in nationality, culture, and identity, grace the stage with not only virtuosic dance prowess but also with a wild, uninhibited and vibrant energy. The stomping of sneakers on the floor, accompanied by drums and electronic music, creates a devilish rhythm, whose pace resembles both techno parties and folk dances. Audiences can anticipate contemporary dance that ignites the senses, captivating with its beauty and visceral physicality that leaves hearts racing.
*The performance uses spoken word in English (with Czech subtitles), nakedness, loud music and intense light.
Length: 75 min
