Interplay 06‚ the festival’s sixth edition inserted within the important project Turin World Book Capital with Rome 2006/2007. In an attempt to foster creative synergies among the diverse art forms and for the occasion of this important engagement‚ the shows hosted by the Interplay Festival were‚ for the most part‚ inspired by the literary world: words became the thematic inspiration for the performances or the rhythmic sound for the choreographic creations.

This year the festival took place at Teatro Astra‚ hosting rekown choreographers and young Italian artists‚ with an eye on the international contemporary scene. Instead‚ the Metropolitan Blitzes sector helded on “mobile stages” around the city‚ involved the International Book Fair of Turin‚ the city center‚ the University of Turin‚ parks in the 10th neighbourhood district and concluded with a big party at the MosaicoDanza headquarters.
