Acto

Choreography by Francesco Annarumma

Featuring the students of the Advanced Training Program, Centro Professionale Ballet StudioMusic by Kangding Ray
It is a search for a physical language that is both fluid and dynamic—a dance not anchored in brute strength, but in precision. It is an invitation, even at a young age, to feel one’s body deeply, to perceive it with awareness and respect.
ACTO is a constellation of vital energy, a group of vibrant beings moving together like a single, intricate ballet gesture, amplified by electronic music that enhances its modernity and emotional impact.
It is a choral work, rooted in unity and collaboration, because true strength is born through sharing.
ACTO is the magic of a body that listens, challenges itself, and transforms.
A gesture of beauty in motion, a celebration of youthful energy and artistic precision.

Overwhelmed
Overwhelmed is a complex emotional bond — a portrait of the natural structure of a deep connection.
It tells the story of two souls moving through waves of melancholy, carrying with them affection, nostalgia, and a trace of anger — emotions that, together, fill the heart to the point of becoming, indeed, overwhelmed.
