Terra dei Fuochi \/ Land of Fires is an environmental performance project which blends modern dance, music, and “documentary theatre” to tell the story of Campania Felix, an area north of Naples, which suffered devastating loss of life due to a toxic waste disaster and scandal. After watching the interviews of mothers who lost their children to cancers related to the toxic waste disaster, Bianca Falco was moved to act. <\/p>\n

Learn more about the toxic waste situation afflicting Campania Felix during Open Hours, at the informational exhibit set up in the space. <\/p>\n

About the Choreographer
\nBianca 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.<\/p>\n

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.<\/p>\n

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.<\/p>\n

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.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
