The movement vocabulary of classical ballet follows clear principles. Everything seems to serve the purpose of overcoming gravity. The bodies appear light, their mass suspended in pirouettes and jumps. Everything is oriented upwards; downward movements occur almost exclusively to gain momentum for going up. What happens when these principles are reversed? With a small cast, Ioannis Mandafounis explores typical ballet movements. They are deconstructed, turned upside down, interrupted, and transformed. Movement sequences from classical repertoire are juxtaposed with completely transformed new versions. A ludicrous game that nevertheless takes its historical source material seriously, despite all the humour. The team is joined by guest dancer Jón Vallejo, Principal dancer of the Semperoper Ballett.
