Mouvoir goes South Korea
Touring with three productions
We will spend this September and October in South Korea. Three will let us travel the country:
One of our co-producers of HELLO TO EMPTINESS, the SIDance Festival, has invited us to show our piece in Seoul. The festival will take place on 24 and 25 September.
We are also especially happy to be able to show PICTURE A VACUUM as a premiere on 14 and 15 October at the ACC – Asia Culture Center in Gwangju. For this sequel of HELLO TO EMPTINESS another rehearsal period is planned.
As a little icing on the cake, we will then perform an excerpt from BILDERSCHLACHTEN, a short 1-person version, in a great setting for the Sejong International Dance Festival on 13 September.
