FAÍCC / Intensive Course in Interpretation and Choreography
FAÍCC is an intensive, dynamic and interdisciplinary training program, which takes place in the first semester of each year at Instável. It is aimed at performers and creators with solid foundations in contemporary dance who want to deepen their knowledge through a process oriented towards professionalization in the areas of interpretation and choreography.
Palcos Instáveis is a project to encourage emerging creation in contemporary dance. The selected proposals benefit from a creative grant, residence space, artistic support, and presentation at the Teatro Campo Alegre.
The Ruin is a Tail / Sancha Meca Castro
An archive isn’t as sterile as one might think. We wake up at dawn to move from the memory of the very first cell. We find that what is gone from the old body still echoes in the new one. The ruin is a tail.
TAMBOR is a contemporary dance creation — a solo performance — rooted in autobiographical memories, cultural practices and experiences of migration. On stage, a body searches for states of physical intensity, drawing on the vocabularies of Venezuelan folk dance, street dance and clubbing cultures.
Do Terreiro ao Mundo / New Creation by Clara Andermatt
This creation stems from an invitation by Teatro Municipal de Vila Real to explore the world of the Pauliteiros de Miranda through dance, between tradition, memory and transformation.
It’s a Long Yesterday / Carminda Soares and Maria R. Soares
One or two bodies, six at most. It's a long yesterday is an exercise in desire, fracture and multiplication.
Songs of Ascension / Beatriz Moreira, Iris Auguste and Giulia Micelli
The game is played with your eyes closed to switch off the violence of unattainable ideals of beauty, representations and preconceived ways associated with femininity. Connecting with the authorship of their own body, the performers.
