On the 25th of March, Companhia de Dança de Almada will participate in the tribute programme to Gil Mendo (1946-2022), fellow choreographer, teacher and dance programmer.
Organized by the Dance community and hosted by Culturgest from March 23 to 25, the program includes four conversations dedicated to the areas in which Gil Mendo worked (education, internationalization, arts programming and the construction of cultural policies), a marathon of performances, as well as the provision and promotion of an archive with documents related to his professional practice.
Companhia de Dança de Almada pays its tribute in the marathon of performances, in the 5pm block, with the presentation of a duet of the recent creation, “Agarra a minha mão e…”, by Tiago Manquinho, performed by Bruno Duarte and Lúcia Salgueiro.
After this presentation, the show will return to the stage on Dance Day, on April 29, at the Augusto Cabrita Municipal Auditorium, in Barreiro.
