Over de voorstelling

Dance as life—never still. Every step, a change. Every gesture, a turning point. Dance as a celebration of endings and beginnings. Dance as the pulse of sensation. Dance as an act of resilience and liberation.

Three distinct dance pieces, each with its own heartbeat, come together in one program.

ENFANTS by Roberta&Roberta

After three years since its premiere, ENFANTS return, it’s a moment to look back, and to look ahead.This is a celebration. A way to close a circle, to make space for new and beautiful things to emerge.

Born from a pure sense of joy, ENFANTS was always more than a performance, it was a shared moment, a spark, a connection. Now, as we prepare for our paths to move in different directions, we come together once more, to honor what was, to welcome what’s to come, and to celebrate the beauty of change.

THE BODY POEM by Polina Skarga

Essentially • feelings •  are a verb.
Ultimate presence.
To breathe, to taste, to sense, to dance –
Sensations are the process.

Intimate sharing of this room
Right here and in between us.
Us, we and me and you and them –
Balance of loves,
Spontaneity in motion.
Emotions here.

The place for all.
For everything to happen.
I take my hand and move to you –
Your feelings, baby, matter.

This body poem created for you and even by you. By your interest, presence and company, dear visitor.
Feel you there, on the stage.
As a verb. As you are.

AIR HAS NO BORDERS by Olena Stoian

By blending echoes of folk dance and tradition, the weight of labour, and a visceral bond with the land, Ukrainian choreographer Olena Stoian invites us on a journey that unfolds as a dialogue between past and present—where a person suspended in struggle seeks the freedom to claim their future. find out more
