FORWARD DANCE COMPANY by LOFFT - DAS THEATER consists of a permanent ensemble of six dancers who work together with changing choreographers. The artistic project director is Gustavo Fijalkow. The FORWARD DANCE COMPANY of LOFFT - DAS THEATER uses the artistic means of dance to question aesthetically and discursively established ways of thinking, power relations and body images. It aims to discover unexplored dance vocabulary and make it visible on stage. The FORWARD DANCE COMPANY at LOFFT - DAS THEATER is the first dance company in Saxony in which dancers with different physicalities work together under professional conditions; it is also the first mixed-abled dance company at an independent production house in the German-speaking world.
On 24 and 25 June 2024, the audience of the international ballet festival "Leipzig tanzt!" will have the chance to get to know the current work "SULLE SPONDE DEL LAGO" by the FORWARD DANCE COMPANY of LOFFT - DAS THEATER. The choreographer of the piece is Alessandro Schiattarella.
