About

Second edition of the International Contemporary Dance Festival that combines entertainment, workshops, performance with the communities and talent promotion. Shows, emerging talents, communities and collateral events that dialogue with the architecture of urban spaces and museums: from June 24 to July 10 in Ruvo di Puglia back the DANCERS en plein air, the festival of contemporary dance organized by the Menhir Company under the artistic direction of the choreographer Giulio De Leo and with the support of the Municipality of Ruvo di Puglia, Apulian Public Theatre, Puglia Region – Department of Tourism and Cultural Industry, management and enhancement of cultural heritage and Ministry of Culture. Two days of prologue and a dense program that will embrace two weekends of summer: thus takes shape the second edition of a project that is inspired by the famous tomb fresco "The dancers of Ruvo di Puglia" and that imagines to revive the protagonists allowing them to dance freely in urban spaces; to live dance as a fusion between city, body, culture, humanity, as a search for self and collective memory thanks to the movement that creates relationship with places and people. Starting from this suggestion, the festival intends to open a reflection on the theme of thearchaeology of dance: a real anthropological investigation on the origin of the gesture, on the stratifications and sedimentations of memories, on the cultural legacies and experiences that shape the personal or collective dimension.
