COPENHAGEN SUMMER DANCE Comes to Det KGL. Teater This Week
The event runs 7-10 July 2022.
Copenhagen Summer Dance is an open-air contemporary dance festival held at Ofelia Plads harbor pier in the heart of Copenhagen. Over the years, Copenhagen Summer Dance has established itself as a must-see event drawing people from all over the world to experience contemporary dance with the harbor, the Opera House and passing boats as backdrop.
This year's Copenhagen Summer Dance offers many world-class experiences. A work by up-and-coming choreographer and former dancer at Danish Dance Theatre Fabio Liberti, performed by Skånes Dansteater. A new work by Artistic Director Pontus Lidberg for some of the world's finest ballet dancers guesting us from Miami City Ballet. And finally, The Hollow Men, a new work for Danish Dance Theatre by internationally recognized choreographer Ina Christel Johannesen, inspired by the T. S. Elliot's famous poem.
A new initiative to complement this year's program are two free open-air dance film screenings, curated by Maja Sørensen and Pontus Lidberg. The film screenings take place after the performances on Friday and Saturday evening.
