Two unique reflections on our world by two visionary choreographers of the moment. A bold, visually captivating evening of dance by Malta’s national dance company.
NATION is a groundbreaking artistic collaboration between ŻfinMalta Artistic Director Matthew William Robinson and Azzopardi Studio. In a stark landscape, lost souls ferociously search for what will come after the end. Haunting and razor-sharp, NATION swerves between the intimate and the vast, the delicate and the brutal.
SWAY, a new creation by Italian choreographer Diego Tortelli, explores our burning desire for deep connection. A journey of raw vulnerability, surrender and trust. SWAY is a rebellion of bodies where the energy of the dancers merges with the heartbeat of the audience.
