Following the spirit of sharing languages that characterises the company's work, KALE Companhia de Dança invites two choreographers of recognised aesthetic signature to develop an original creation for the company's young corps of dancers. This show presents the vision of the Portuguese choreographer São Castro in "Unsettling Self", which inspired by Fernando Pessoa speaks of identity and its construction/deconstruction, conflicts (internal and external) and their different points of view. The stage is also shared with Christine Hassid's creation, "Tumulte", which takes us on a journey towards the EU through moments of confrontation and chaos, guided by the mastery of Chopin. The register of physicality, energy, detail, are distinctive of a DANCE THAT DANCES, which favours the embodiment of feelings, sensations and the strength that adds to the message that reaches us from the stage, these traits are indisputable in Castro and Hassid, and in line with the essence of the international network to which KALE belongs, and which guides its artistic identity, the Danse qui Danse network.
