INTERPLAY, the festival dedicated to the new generations of the most contemporary dance returns in the Spring, bringing the best of new national and international creativity to Turin for 10 days.

The festival opens at the Astra Theatre on May 21st and 22nd, shifts to the Casa del Teatro Theatre on May 25th , then moves outdoors to the city squares for the Metropolitan Blitzes on May 26th, and concludes at the Lavanderia a Vapore Theatre in Collegno on May 29th and 31st. Various theatrical spaces, to accommodate different audiences, but also to bring dance into and around the city.
There will be 100 artists from all over the world
, coming from 10 European and extra-EU countries and from different Italian regions: 23 companies, with 8 national premieres, which will alternate in 3 theatres in the city and the metropolitan area of Turin and in urban spaces. DEBUTS, SITE-SPECIFIC CREATIONS, and the hospitality of NEW GENERATIONS, alongside BETTER KNOWN groups that are innovative, courageous, and free to use different linguistic and artistic codes. A window on the artistic poetics of the present, with a look towards the future, a look that is sometimes disturbing. There will be Break Times for sharing aesthetic, cultural, and emotional experiences, as well as drinking and eating together ... a "party" time for the shows, reconfirming Interplay as one of the most significant appointments for discovering the future talents of contemporary dance.

Our attention continues to be focused on artists from the Mediterranean basin, with a section of the festival dedicated to companies from different Arab countries: FOCUS on YOUNG MEDITERRANEAN CHOREOGRAPHERS. Interplay inaugurates the tour, hosting an Iranian choreographer and a Syrian company, a choice that is also a gamble in such a delicate political time.
