In line with our commitment to champion emerging Polish choreographers, we showcase a piece by Katarzyna Kozielska, an internationally acclaimed artist previously associated with the Stuttgart Ballet, who remains little known in Poland. Audiences will also encounter the work of Eyal Dadon, a former dancer with Israel’s distinguished Kibbutz Contemporary Dance Company. A talented dancer and choreographer, Dadon also designs soundtracks for his productions. The programme concludes with the Polish premiere of Alexander Ekman’s celebrated ballet, Cacti , which has been scoring international successes for over a decade. Witty and enthralling, the piece represented the artist’s youthful defiance and his steadfast belief in the interpretive freedom of contemporary art – a principle we wholeheartedly embrace in this programme.
