The Sun Is Burning (Yolanda Morales)

The Sun is Burning explores the cosmic event of a solar eclipse. Inspired by indigenous narratives from Abya Yala, the piece celebrates the transformative power of the sun.

In view of global warming, the heat of the sun is not only life-giving, but also becomes a threat. The stage is transformed into a charged, dense space in which darkness and light, dreams and memories are scenically interwoven by the dancers in various stories, culminating in the possibility of a new beginning.

Powerful, energetic, poetic and deeply rooted in a tradition in which contemporary dance can be experienced as a social practice.
