INTERPLAY 04‚ a guest this year of the 4th Focus of Torino Danza‚ offers a panorama of the most interesting national and international companies working in the field of contemporary dance. The two aspects of the Interplay and Contrappunti festivals have been united‚ divided into appointments on seven days: three evenings at the Teatro Juvarra and Café Procope‚ with two companies presented each evening; one evening in collaboration with the Piccolo Regio Laboratory’s season‚ and finally‚ three days of Metropolitan Blitzes taking brief shows around the city‚ from the Palazzo Nuovo of the University of Turin (in collaboration with the course “The History of Dance and Mime” by Professor Pontremoli)‚ and the city center’s store display windows‚ streets and squares to the territory at Turin’s outskirts.
Regarding the representations in theatres‚ guest choregraphers worked so as to create strong similarities‚ not so much from the performance point of view‚ in that the shows were often very different from one another‚ but rather from an experimental viewpoint‚ of a willingness to undertake linguistic research‚ at times exasperated and absolute.
