Fairy Tales is a dance performance with strong visual identity for 8 female dancers and 2 musicians.
Inside the themes of womanhood and the values that femininity brings to our world we are coming back to places of our childhood to reveal the processes of becoming oneself. We are trying on and off different roles, as if it was just another game or another dress. Roles we all know from well known fairy tales or real life figures. We are creating new fantasies for ourselves, reimagining our identities and the way we see our happy endings.
