Business Overview
The project presented a contemporary dance work combining the historical song Bolero with the Baobab repertoire "Or enthusiasm." The theme is "struggle, war". What's going on in the middle of these repeated human mistakes? By combining research and imagination with its roots, Bolero brings a "chain of excitement" to the present. In this performance, while taking all possible measures to prevent the spread of the virus, we have created a theatrical experience in which the audience is not merely a spectator but a participant in the production.
