Cinedans | Lumière | Nederlandse Dansdagen

With the loss of the possibility to experience performances in the theater, the sharing of the video registrations has undergone a huge development during this Corona year. This applies in a quantitative sense, where the numbers increased exponentially and the livestream was discovered as a businessmodel. And it also applied to the quality of the registrations themselves, which responded much more than before to the way in which dance is experienced on a screen.

After a year of experimenting, it seems interesting to take stock: how does the experience of dance on the screen relate to dance experienced live, or in that special intermediate form: on the big screen of the cinema? A comparative research with a live performance in the cinema by choreographer Astrid Boons. 

The meeting is a collaboration between the Nederlandse Dansdagen, Cinedans and Lumière.
