Aterballetto dances at the prestigious Athens and Epidaurus Festival.
Wolf/BLISS is the perfect evening to admire the versatility of the 16 dancers of Aterballetto, the only Italian company to have in its repertoire two of the most intense and acclaimed choreographers on the international scene.
In Wolf by Hofesh Shechter we find a sort of wild animality, which sometimes crosses men and sometimes women. Dragged into a mysterious and engaging universe, we are invested with a wave of energy that expresses the strength of a dancing tribe.
From the foggy atmospheres of Wolf we pass to the light of BLISS, a masterpiece by Johan Inger to the notes of Keith Jarrett’s Koln Concert.
BLISS is a dance that emanates happiness and above all life. A joy for the performers, who surrender to the music without any resistance, and for the public, who can admire the maturity and skill of each dancer.
The Wolf/BLISS evening is part of Tempo Forte, an important cultural collaboration between Italy and Greece, created with the support of the Italian Cultural Institute in Athens, the Italian Embassy in Athens and the MiBAC – General Direction of the Performing Arts.
