Weaving Stories and Cultures: Dancing Histor(i)yies Workshop 2

The journey continues in Tharros, Italy, with Workshop 2 of the Dancing Histor(y)ies project!

Building on the magic of Workshop 1, ilDance, Polish Dance Theatre, and Italian dance companies dived deeper into Sardinian heritage—exploring traditional music, costumes, and textiles. This workshop was all about connection and collaboration, setting the stage for an extraordinary performance. With creative exchanges, logistical planning for the festival, and stunning video and photo shoots, the team brought Sardinia’s vibrant culture closer to audiences worldwide.

Stay tuned for more as these artistic worlds unite to tell Sardinia’s story through dance!
