The successful collaboration between BODHI PROJECT and Dance Days Chania continues this year with a commissioned work by the internationally renowned choreographer Lenio Kaklea. For this new stage piece five dancers from BODHI PROJECT explore the theme of youth. We are surrounded by a multitude of products aimed at and supposedly made for 'youth': pop music, video clips, social media, fashion, electronic cigarettes, sodas, amusement parks, films, night clubs and cultural events. An entire market is oriented towards, nourished by and supposedly responsive to what youth wants. Together with the dancers Lenio Kaklea creates a highly dynamic choreographic score that questions what it means to be, feel, look, or simply identify (or not) with being young today.
