Show | My Fierce Ignorant Step by Christos Papadopoulos
Exploring the group’s unity and cohesion, Greek choreographer Christos Papadopoulos electrifies audiences with works in which bodies move as a single organism, pulsing with intensity. At the forefront of the European dance scene, he captivates with the precision of his choral pieces. *My Fierce Ignorant Step* draws its initial inspiration from the auditory memories of his childhood in Greece.
How can we recapture that feeling of youth when we believed ourselves invincible?
The bodies pulsate with fearless joy, to the rhythm of collective memories of a time when everything lay open before us. Despite the group’s relentless momentum, individuality shines through. Sound echoes, voices, and bodies harmonize like instruments. Imperceptibly, the dance and the musical score (composed by Kornilios Selamsis) build in intensity, carried along by the performers’ breath and vocal impulses. Until collective euphoria sets in. Exhilarating!
