Every month, dance takes countless journeys—between the Mediterranean and the North Cape, or between Irish and Lithuanian adventures of real bodies for real bodies. Here it is: the constantly updated overview of dance festivals in Europe.
After the blast
In Beirut on the eastern Mediterranean, nothing confronts you with reality as much as the dance, the Arab body, the unadorned, which after years of horror has shed its ornamental dress and speaks directly to you.
