German choreographer Pina Bausch flies to Italy at the 52nd Festival of the Two Worlds of Spoleto for the Italian debut of Bamboo Blues, a performance created in 2007 co-produced by the Goethe-Institute of India, following an international tour that ended at the Brooklyn Academy of Music in New York and at the Théâtre de la Ville of Paris, after passing by theaters in Calcutta, Delhi and Mumbai. Pina Bausch’ prestigious international dance company, the Tanztheater Wuppertal, absent in Italy since 2007, is hosted for the first time by the Festival of the Two Worlds of Spoleto. The performances at the Spoleto Festival are the only held by the company in Italy this year. |
