Copenhagen International Dance Festival
2021 edition
International Guest Performances
Spellbound Contemporary Ballet (IT)
In 2021 we had the honour of presenting Spellbound Contemporary Ballet in a very special setting where the audience had the chance to experience the unique dancers and artistic work up close (within corona-safety distance, of course).
The performances were excerpts of Spellbound’s work.
Hodworks (HU)
We had the honour to present Hodworks – the Budapest-based international company founded by choreographer Adrienn Hód in 2007. Hodworks regroups sensible, proactive and forward-thinking creators having their own creative and concentrated working methods.
The performances were excerpts of the company’s work “Conditions of being a Mortal”
