CYPRUS CHOREOGRAPHY SHOWCASE | MEANWHILE

Cyprus Choreography Showcase (SΧΚ) takes place every two years at the Rialto Theatre and aims to showcase the work of local choreographers abroad, as well as to create greater visibility for the Cypriot contemporary cultural production. The SXK has become an institutional event that presents selected choreographic pieces conceived and created in Cyprus over the past two years. More specifically, the SXK offers the opportunity to Cyprus-based choreographers to present their works, within an organised context, to artistic directors and international contemporary dance festival representatives, thus fostering collaborations with global dance networks. In this way, the Showcase enhances the choreographers’ efforts for international promotion and presentation of their works abroad.

The parallel events of the Cyprus Choreography Showcase under the title Meanwhile are organized by Dance House Lemesos, Dance House Lefkosia, and Nea Kinisi in collaboration with Rialto Theatre and the Department of Contemporary Culture of the Deputy Ministry of Culture. The parallel events aim to present works intended for alternative presentation spaces, curate parallel events, and support alternative forms of choreographic creation including works created within the context of personal initiatives, residency programs, and independent festivals. It is enriched with a moderated discussion concerning the “relevance” of Cypriot choreographic creation and its position in contemporary European reality.
