The Basque choreographer Iker Gómez presents Un día Cisne en el Teatro (A Swan Day at the Theatre), a stage performance that promotes social values and coexistence through dance. This piece is part of the ‘Proyecto Cisne’ (‘Swan Project’), an innovative concept that uses new technologies as a pedagogical tool to connect with different audiences. The project, developed by the company Nowhere Theater | Cía. de Danza Iker Gómez along with a group of specialised teachers, has three parts: a dance and creativity workshop aimed at a school-aged audience, a choreographic exhibition, and the presentation of an online Web 2.0 educational tool that aims to give visibility and bring dance to all audiences. The format of Un día Cisne en el Teatro is a workshopperformance combination divided into three parts with the participation of different audiences. The first part is the project’s web 2.0 site, which offers free access to the contents and interactive games about dance. The second part consists of practicing movement and choreographic memory as a starting point to develop creativity through dance. In this part, the artist invites participants to learn a specific choreography as an introduction to the concept of choreographic memory. And the third part consists of a stage performance of Un día Cisne en el Teatro, accompanied by a discussion between the audience, the performers of the piece and the choreographer. An innovative and educational performance adapted to our times.
