More about the event:
RE-CALL (reloaded)
The performance takes the personal stories of its performers as its starting point and, specifically, the points where their various paths converged. The aim was not to relive these stories or to describe them, but rather to use them as elements of a bodily identity that drives them on stage so as to map out their presence in the space. This is fashioned on stage through the use of the square, an absolutely defined shape that signifies both precision and logic. A square constantly reformed to hold stories, to embrace bodies, and to create in the present: the square as a shape that remains constant while everything changes, bodies mature, and time flows by.

DO ROBOTS HAVE EMOTIONS?
“The performance you’re going to see has to do with robots. I chose this topic because I feel like a robot sometimes too.”
Debut choreography, created by choreographer Manolis Saridakis. The sci-fi adventure transports us to a universe where artificial and emotional intelligence compete against each other. The “robots" on stage perform each and all together of a personal dance, and then are taken to a virtual bar/club, where they become new commands for emotions on demand!
