A Celebration of Movement: The 25th Cyprus Contemporary Dance Festival
The stage is set for a grand celebration of contemporary dance as the 25th edition of the Cyprus Contemporary Dance Festival draws near. This prestigious event, a beacon for dance enthusiasts, is poised to enliven the cities of Limassol and Nicosia with a vibrant array of performances.
Under the auspices of the Department of Contemporary Culture of the Ministry of Culture and in partnership with the Rialto Theatre, the festival will commence on May 31. Over the span of nearly a month, until June 23, audiences will be treated to an eclectic showcase featuring dance groups from five different countries.
The Rialto Theatre in Limassol and the Municipal Theatre of Nicosia are gearing up to host these dynamic performances. The festival, a cornerstone event organized by the Department of Modern and Contemporary Culture since 1998, has consistently provided a platform for both local and international performers and choreographers, playing a pivotal role in enhancing the visibility and appreciation of contemporary dance in Cyprus.
This year’s program promises to deliver high-caliber performances from dance groups hailing from Cyprus, Greece, Denmark, Italy, and the Netherlands. The festival will be inaugurated with a production by Cypriot choreographer Suzana Fiala at the Rialto Theatre on opening night. The festivities will continue with a Dutch production taking the stage in Limassol on June 4, followed by a series of performances scheduled for Nicosia on June 12 and 15.
