The second week of Dansa Metropolitana
The festival continues to bring dance performances to the city’s streets, squares, theatres, metro stations, public transport and cinemas.
For a week now, the Dansa Metropolitana dance festival has been making the city vibrate with
performances in unusual venues in the city, including streets, squares, theatres, metro stations, public transport and cinemas, and the action is set to continue for another week. One of the most striking activities is ‘HOP on the metro’, an itinerant multidisciplinary intervention that fuses a urban, African dances, circus and contemporary dance featuring dancers, two musicians and an avant-garde DJ. HOP can be seen on several stretches of the L2, L5, L9 North and South, and L10 South metro lines. In Barcelona it will call in at the Foneria metro station on 29 March though it will also pass through L'Hospitalet, Cornellà, Santa Coloma de Gramenet and Badalona.
Among the other performances on the festival programme are 'On Goldberg Variations/Variations' by Mal Pelo, at the TNC, a show that transforms Bach's music into body movements. Equally transgressive is ‘Quatre octaves i mitja’ by Rosa Muñoz and Mònica Muntaner at Antic Teatre, a reflection on melancholy, death, love and chance. Other highlights are Raquel Gualtero's 'Amaro' at Sala Hiroshima Hall, and 'Blanc Salvatge' by Anna Fontanet and 'Mix-en-scene' by Amaranta Velarde and Alba Corral at La Caldera Les Corts.
