Terra dei Fuochi:Land of Fires – Bianca Falco (trailer) from Bianca Falco on Vimeo.

I have been wanting to prepare the best trailer I could from the 2017 premiere at La Mama E.T.C. of “Terra dei Fuochi/Land of Fires”. Time flies and I decided to stop procrastinating and prepare one today! Maybe it is not the best I could do, still I am glad I made it =). Thanks to all the wonderful donors who made the staging of the show happen. I am working on a shorter version as a solo to perform in Mexico 😉 #terradeifuochilandoffires #biancafalcochoreographer Bianca Falco #associazionenoigenitoriditutti #toxicwaste

Terra dei Fuochi is still burning!

A year ago I started rehearsing/creating the project Terra dei Fuochi/ Land of Fires. Two years ago I started working on the concept. Thanks to @lamamaetc the show has been produced and had its world premiere in nyc. It isn't enough, this is a dance, documentary theater performance aimed to share the story of the suffering mothers who lost their kids to cancer in my home region in Italy. Cancer triggered by the toxic waste that has been buried or just deoppes there and burned daily. Since I started the project things didn't get better, it is worse than ever. I am calling it as it is: a genocide. I am eager to bring the show everywhere in the world. Contact me if you, or anyone you know, is interested in having us at their festival, college, studio, museum, gallery, outdoor happening. We are ready!!! @marziacaccioppoli @bianca.falco.nyc @marcyfalco thanks as to the numerous donors and the Domenico Paulon Foundation for the support!

About the Choreographer
Bianca Falco has staged thirty-some works in NYC, Canada, and Europe. She graduated in Ballet, and studied Jazz Dance and diverse Modern Dance techniques. She came to NYC on a scholarship from the Nikolais/Louis Dance Lab. Her early experiences in Europe include performing with Murray Louis and operating her own dance school. She received awards and special mentions for both her own video dance projects and as a choreographer for film and theatre.

Bianca seeks to explore connectivity: the interaction and ties people have with each other, other living creatures, objects, and their environment. She explores how the physicality of movement is challenged, modified, and transformed through response and engagement with outer phenomena.

She is from Napoli, one of the most creative, and sometimes, challenging cities in the world. Through dance, she learned that she could transcend difficulties through translating them into modern dance. She hopes to lead everyone to a different perception, a different place, where limitations are beautiful and a key to getting people together to find solutions to social issues as well as personal ones.

Bianca is proud to announce that Terra dei Fuochi / Land of Fires has been invited to be part of La MaMa’s 55th season. The full production will be staged in March 2017.
