Premiere

CANCELLED – Real Time

Real Time promises a new experience during which the movements of two dancers will be captured before the eyes of the audience and broadcast in real time on different screens. Passed through the filter of digitalisation, the dancers’ bodies multiply and metamorphose into avatars or abstract forms. Motion capture merges stage reality and the virtual sphere.
