A la Carte

BY MANDAFOUNIS

Have you ever wanted to be part of the creation of a dance piece? Here’s your chance! Now you can be involved in the creative process and influence an evening of dance.

"À la carte" consists of longer and shorter scenes, the order of which is not fixed. Thanks to the different props, sound effects, music and lighting, the scenes allow for a variety of dance styles, atmospheres and themes. However, the focal point remains the encounter between the ensemble and the audience – just like cooking a meal together. Almost nothing that the dancers do in this production is predetermined. All movements arise from the meeting between the different bodies and from the contact with you. Each evening therefore becomes a unique experience.
