Ballet Arabesque takes us deep into The Dante Secret

[ Din categoria News ] [ Data articol: 2024-10-20 ] [ Din localitatea Sofia ] [ Tara Bulgaria ] [ Stiri de la bnr.bg/en ]   The long-awaited premiere of Ballet Arabesque`s The Dante Secret has captivated Bulgarian cultural circles and become the focus of discussion since the end of the last theatre season. The production is created by an extremely strong artistic team, choreographed by Arabesque soloist Asen Nakov - who has already shown his exceptional talent in works such as Small Rules (2017) and Mirror of Time (2014). The original score is composed by Rumen Boyadzhiev Jr, who has collaborated with Nakov in the past. The set design is by Katrin Krasimirova, the costumes by Adriyana Naydenova and the playwright is Mayia Pramatarova. The performance features the entire company of Bulgaria`s only state ballet company dedicated to modern and experimental dance. The Dante Secret is an intelligent, brilliant work by a group of talented collaborators. The scenography dynamically supports the action while closely following the choreographer`s vision, creating a sense of magic, darkness, surrealism and ethereal beauty - achieved through a blend of real sets, multimedia and 3D mapping. The costumes are perfect, at one point echoing the finale of Bob Fosse`s All That Jazz, at another adding Gothic and then Elizabethan elements to suit the action. In other contexts, they embrace minimalism to ensure that nothing diverts the audience`s attention from the dancers` movements.
