Dancing Pina Synopsis

Two spectacular dance projects show how a young generation of dancers from all over the world are rediscovering Pina's choreography: the Semperoper Ballet Company in Dresden rehearses Pina's dance opera Iphigenia in Tauris, and dancers from all over Africa rehearse Pina's ballet Le Sacre du Printemps at the École des Sables in Senegal. A fascinating metamorphosis: while the dancers of street dance, classical ballet, traditional and modern African dance transform Pina's work, Pina's choreography transforms the dancers.—DimitriosD
