О мероприятии:

Nicosia International Festival completes its #acceptance series, organized on the occasion of Cyprus Pride 2023, with a contemporary dance triple bill with works by two Cypriot contemporary dance artists, Panos Malaktos and Diamanto Hatzizacharia. All three projects are motivated by the need for camaraderie, visibility and inclusion. Exploring our vulnerability, our vital need for human contact and coexistence, the two artists create universes in which bodies fight for equality, for love, for love, for work, for their place in society.

“Hire me, please.” (2019)

Panos Malactos

Audition as a condition. As a physical and psychological state. As an evolutionary process. As brutality. As a relationship of authority. As a statement. As an obstacle. As a prerequisite. As a "journey". As a journey. As a verdict. As a depreciation of personality. As a retrospect. As a role-playing game. As a rejection. As an exploration of boundaries. As a total availability.

It is well known to everyone, but more to the people that work in the performing arts, that auditioning is a stressful phase in the creative process. And especially at the beginning of the career of an artist-dancer is also relatively unavoidable.

 

“Hire me, please” has a very basic axis: the irony and the commentary in the auditioning process - the sarcasm over their character and structure. From this perspective, the dancer-choreographer observes on the one hand his personal ignorance of the boundaries and materials he possesses, which he ultimately provides the judges and on the other the survival instinct that compels him to the full satisfaction of his potential future employers. The main contrast of Hire me, please is the absolute availability of the listener (I do my best so that I will ultimately survive) and his emotional / physical / spiritual / mental state before, during and after the audition.

“would you still love me if I was like this” (2021)

Diamanto Hadjizacharia

 

The piece demonstrates the beauty of companionship and the importance of autonomy through a literal projection of interdependence. It draws inspiration from Plato’s myth of the Other Half while highlighting the experience of the bodies as one entity and their journey to separation. Would you still love me if I was like this, is a playful journey of love and tenderness in the world of a rather unusual duet.

“SADBOI (2021)”

Panos Malactos

 

I had a boyfriend. Then I got dumped. I got dumped, I bought a thong and I need lots of validation.”

Panos Malactos works with Elias Adam and researches the concept of radical stage vulnerability.

 

“SADBOI” likes his suffering raw. He is gay, horny, heartbroken and extremely peaceful. He instagrams, therefore he exists. “SADBOI” is an autofictional portrait of a sadboi dancer. The show attempts an ambiguous and complex narration, which explores sex, love and sadness in the fully technological and sexualised post - modern age. “SADBOI” aims to create an immersive experience where intense physicality intersects with the virtual space of the internet (social media, memes, dating apps). If lovesongs are dumb, wait till you hear this one. How many fire emojis will this get? The admins of this show are searching for validation.
