Anthem/Gnawa/Agora
Goyo Montero (resident choreographer with Carlos Acosta's company Acosta Danza) explores the idea of collective identities in
Anthem, an epic and emotionally charged ensemble piece for 14 dancers, beautifully visualised with dramatic lighting.
Gnawa, by Nacho Duato (Artistic Director of the Berlin State Ballet), draws on the Mediterranean colours and flavours of Valencia, powered by the hypnotic, ritualistic music of North Africa. For the finale, Brazilian choreographer Cassi Abranches' colourful and flirtatious
Agora sculpts the movement of each dancer's body with the percussive beats and bass grooves of Afro-Brazilian fusion.
