Ballavamo sempre

On Thursday March 18 at 9:00 p.m., the show "We Always Danced" will take place at the Teatro Comunale Dino Buzzati.

Before the stories, there were tales told through dance.

It is said that the last memories to remain anchored in the mind, when everything else fades away, are songs. The melodies we sang as children, the nursery rhymes our mothers sang to us to help us sleep, the music we danced to while sometimes disobeying our parents.

More than a hundred voices of elderly gentlemen and ladies share and sing what they remember about the war, love, their mothers, where they danced, where they escaped, how much everything has changed today, and how perhaps some things remain unchanged.

BumBumFritz has recorded these memories, transcribed, processed, and intertwined them with electronic music. We Always Danced is not just an archive of important memories, collected on audio cassettes, listened to and danced to during the performance, but also how these relate to the present, and how they still concern us. How have we changed in the last hundred years? What are we still capable of remembering?
