Rosas / Anne Teresa De Keersmaeker

Created in 1983. Never performed in Italy. Until now.When Anne Teresa De Keersmaeker made Rosas danst Rosas, she was 23 years old and largely unknown. The work that emerged — built on obsessive repetition, everyday gesture, and Thierry De Mey’s relentless score — helped permanently alter what contemporary dance could be.Forty-three years later, it remains startling. A new cast of four dancers performs without pause for 100 minutes, caught in a choreographic structure that transforms repetition into something closer to endurance, resistance, and finally, release. It has been filmed, studied, referenced, and imitated. Beyoncé borrowed from it. Thousands of people around the world have learned it through the open-access Re:Rosas! platform.This is its Italian premiere. Bolzano Danza brings it to the Waltherhaus, an intimate venue that will make you feel every breath.
Don’t miss it.
