KURTIDOS DANCE COMPANY
“El Ensayo” (2023)

The Kurtidos Dance Company is a collective of mature dancers and former dancers, Spaniards and Italians, whose aim is to bring to the stage, with humour and lightness, the attained artistic maturity in strong contrast to the age of the body. They say: 'We could say that dance is a young art. Instead, we prefer to think that dance is an art that one must be able to handle according to circumstances that include, on the one hand, a human background that is a source of many opportunities, and on the other hand, a mature body. However, there are contradictions, not the least of which is the conflict with one's own body that demands ever greater attention and respect. In addition, there are always disagreements with one's workmates, the love and respect for one's art that becomes extreme and can cause aversion to the stage. All this is then overcome by a kind of fatal attraction to this form of life that we have chosen since childhood'.
