The international creations will be on show at both venues in the capital. This Sunday [24th] from 7:30 p.m. onwards.

 

 

The Auditorio de Tenerife, a cultural space linked to the Department of Culture of Tenerife Island Council, is managed by its island's Minister of Culture, Enrique Arriaga. Together with the theatre Victoria, this Sunday (24th) from 7:30 p.m. onwards both venues host the geographic scope of the 26th edition of Masdanza Festival. The tickets are available on the web sites of both venues.

The programme starts in the Teatro Victoria with a selection of solos. The first performance is Comme un symbole, by Alexanndre Fandard, a French visual artist and choreographer whose creations never adopt a single shape, but put on stage all these specific archetypes. The show continues with 'Mientras el félido duerme', by the Mexican Danya Guadalupe González Cristerna. This is a body narrative about a body experiencing a situation that causes it to express unknown states that take it out of control.

The theatre-dance and multimedia performance Legaxy xx arrives from Germany. It unravels the implications of gender inheritance, offers alternative realities of parenthood; shows the torment of seeing oneself reflected in one's children, and the horror of burying a child. Last but not least, Niosbel Osmar González Rubio comes from Cuba to present Continuum, a show that uses death in order to talk about how important life is.

At 9:00 p.m. starts the duets programme in the Chamber Hall of the Auditorio de Tenerife. Delicious Overdose (Italy) opens the show with a dream, a visionary metaphor, an oneiric and inner journey where sweetness seems to be too sweet. So sweet that it oversteps the limit, it becomes toxic, it overwhelms the dancer and drains her of her vital energy.  Cuando somos arrives from Barcelona, Spain. It questions the idea of "we are" from an inhabited space, the land, the skin and the water, the essence of the present.

Concerto for mandolin and String in C major by Vivaldi is an Israelian creation that merges dance for adult, young and children's audience: music, dance as a celebration, as a space of freedom, simplicity, virtuosity, intimacy and friendship. Finally, Talk about death (South Korea) will be performed. This work is based on the Korean tradition of funeral ceremonies. It aims to comfort those who live as best they can while embracing the depths between life and death.

The sessions in Teatro Victoria take place again on Monday at 9:00 pm. The tickets can be purchased on the website www.elteatrovictoria.com.
