The artistic collaboration between Aterballetto and the Piccolo Teatro continues for the sixth season, the theatre becoming the “Milanese home” for the ensemble from Emilia, the most important Italian independent dance company, which enjoys international success.
The programme chosen for Milanese audiences includes two new creations by Giuseppe Spota, a past dancer for the company, who has returned to Italy after establishing himself as performer and choreographer in Germany, a choreography for a whole evening, from 7 to 9 June, and Ti Porto Via, a creation inspired by Via Emila, from 13 to 15 June, an evening in which Jiří Pokorný, a thirty-five year-old from Prague with a most respectable international curriculum, proposes Words and Space, while a third title is still to be defined. A programme which is an excellent summary of the path taken by the artistic director Cristina Bozzolini with the aim of renewing the repertoire and explore the various identities of contemporary choreography, bringing writers from diverse nationalities and new Italian talent together. «Taking part in the 70th anniversary season of the most prestigious Italian theatrical institute - explains Giovanni Ottolini, general director of Aterballetto - is not only an honour, but it allows us to feel in harmony with its long and fruitful artistic journey through our identity of producers of a “danced dance”, an “artistic dance for everyone”, inspired by the founders of the Piccolo Teatro di Milano».
