A shared creation among the choreographer Daniele Ninarello and the Bologna community of Performing Gender – Dancing In Your Shoes, people of different ages, with and without dance experience.
A living collage in which each performer generously expresses his or her individuality through movement, and presents it to the group. The performers explore a multitude of postures, which they adopt as an intuition arising from silence, building a collection of postures that can be analysed through their perceptions and in which they can find themselves. All of this in order to surrender and let absorbed personalities and familiar images flow into our bodies. These personalities and images call us out and we can allow them to say something about us. In this way, the group explores and presents its identity, which appears as an opaque collection, scattered and fragmented everywhere. It is about speeding up the heartbeats of all people present, in the crowd that in-forms us, giving up defining ourselves to blend into the agglomeration of all possible reincarnations.
Crowded Bodies is an intimate quest to connect one’s self to those around us, moved by mutual trust and a desire for closeness, acceptance, unity, and understanding.
