ISHIDA Dance returns with critically acclaimed dancers and choreography by ISHIDA, Greek choreographer Andonis Foniadakis, and Stephen Shropshire based in the Netherlands.

The world premiere by ISHIDA titled “inside my walls” is inspired by internationally acclaimed Japanese author Haruki Murakami and the distinct worlds he creates. Utilizing magical realism, “inside my walls” follows an introvert who hoards piles of newspapers on the perimeter of his apartment, which he believes protects him from harm. Encountering a mysterious visitor who has been living inside his apartment walls, he finds unexpected solace in their companionship.

The program also includes a world premiere by guest choreographer Stephen Shropshire, former artistic director of Noord Nederlandse Dans, who has received awards and honors for his choreography in Europe. Greek choreographer Andonis Foniadakis returns to ISHIDA with his ethereal work “Horizons”. Foniadakis’ work is well known in the European dance community commissioned by many of the top European dance companies over the past two decades. The evening promises to be a unique opportunity to see some of the best and most interesting choreography from Europe and the US.
