Dance
Christos Papadopoulos: My Fierce Ignorant Step
About the performance
A contemporary dance work for ten dancers by the Greek choreographer Christos Papadopoulos, in the Grand Theatre's Drama Theatre on 16 and 17 October, about 60 minutes without an interval. It takes its material from the Greek epic vocal work Axion Esti, and is the first of his pieces to leave natural imagery for the bonds between people and the force of a group. There is no heavy score: Kornilios Selamsis builds the sound from the dancers' own breath, humming and shouting, after the manner of a chorus in Greek tragedy. Black stage, everyday clothes. Part of the 25th China Shanghai International Arts Festival, presented within Dance Reflections by Van Cleef & Arpels.
