International Festival Santiago a Mil 2017

Since 1994, every January the Fundación Teatro a Mil organizes the International Festival Santiago a Mil in the city of Santiago de Chile with extensions in several regions of the country. Santiago a Mil is a window to the world of the performing arts, where the limits of disciplines, territories and cultures do not exist. The festival transcends borders to become a meeting and a space of dialogue where everyone is invited.

The XXIV version of the Festival Santiago a Mil brings shows from all five continents. In this edition, it hosts several countries that visit the festival for the first time: Haiti, Democratic Republic of Congo, Palestine, Senegal, Syria, Lebanon, Iran and Hungary. Because of this and because this edition seeks to reflect on migration, the motto of the 2017 festival is "Santiago a Mil-Sin fronteras (without borders)".

AC/E supports the participation of Rocio Molina with "Danzaora and Vinática", a show of 2010. The piece had its own life and a constant evolution over the last years. At the end of this process of transformation, "Danzaora and Vinática" emerged as a flamenco show that on the one hand no longer wanted to fully propose the visual and narrative universe of the previous piece, but on the other did not give up some of the poetic moods that had been vertebrate. And since "Vinática" represented something like the seminal piece in which Rocío Molina faced her own metamorphosis as a dancer in "danzaora", getting drunk from childhood to assume, with the very act of drunkenness, her right to excesses. To the imbalances of existential and artistic maturity, the new "Danzaora and Vinática" looks at this initiation, this ritual of passage, from the pragmatic and experimental dimension, true duel of an adult struggle against - and side - of the language , Which is the most succinct, most severe universe of the recital.

Danzaora is more than a school, it is an attitude, a philosophy that conceives the dancing universe, where the elements that make it up are so important as the interrelation and integration that is established between them to create that all, that new universe, that new language ; A language that sums up his personal look at dance and dance.
