Endless
“Endless” is a performance which combines dance, music and video that questions the human condition, life, the degradation of the body
and our only certainty - death. Endless? Perhaps. Henrique Amoedo and some of the performers from the “Dançando com a Diferença” (Dancing with Difference) company, were inspired to feel/live emotions, after visiting the Holocaust Memorial (in Berlin), the Hill of Crosses (in Lithuania) and the concentration camps of Auschwitz-Birkenau (in Poland). Through an artistic residency process, they collected images that helped them write the script for this show, that was concluded in the peaceful environment of Estonia, in April 2012. Since it had its world
premiere in Madeira in 2012, the show has been performed in various different contexts and countries, with adaptations that always include the local reality and the present situation.
The project “+ Inclusion / Fora de Portas” is a partnership between A Oficina and Dançando com a Diferença that aims to bring different audiences closer to inclusive dance, under the direction of the one who created this concept, Henrique Amoedo. After workshops, training and different group activities, we have now reached the final goal: to bring together different people with different life experiences on stage, in a show whose involvement will take the audience and participants to a unique and immersive moment.
