Until 9 Dec: Romaeuropa Festival (The 21st Romaeuropa Festival celebrates technology in 39 theatrical, artistic, dance and musical performances)
The Romaeuropa festival returns this year with 39 performances - 30 of which have never been performed in Italy before - and over 200 artists from around the world. The festival will be the cultural highlight of autumn in the Eternal City, hosted in key venues and putting on a highly innovative programme in five sections. Art and Technology features the Sensi Sotto Sopra exhibition; while six great contemporary performers in six great classics in Vecchie Storie e Nuovi Sguardi (Old stories and New interpretations) with Robert Lepage, Alessandro Baricco, Alain Platel and Les Ballets C. de la B., Emma Dante, and Deborah Warner and Fiona Shaw. The Orienti section presents Sylvie Guillem and Akram Khan, Pichet Klunchun and Jerôme Bel, Gao Yanjinzi and Luo Lili with the Beijing Modern Dance Company, and a new show by Giorgio Barberio Corsetti. The festival has a tradition of bringing innovative art forms and artists to the fore and its Trasformazioni (Transformations) segment contains the most experimental in sounds, images, body-work, and identity issues. Pan Sonic and Alter Ego, Matmos and Terry Riley, Antony and Charles Atlas all perform, and Jeff Mills reinterprets Buster Keaton and Fritz Lang. The Nightline section hosts Nightshade, a mélange of dance, strip tease, technique and seduction, and Colin Poole, Stephanie Thiersch and Anna Baumgart at the Brancaleone venue. The Romaeuropa Festival will close with a massive final party, a rave called Cocoon Night hosted by DJs Ricardo Villalobos and James Holden. www
