DANCE N°3 started in the moment in which the score was given to the three choreographers: Eszter Salamon, Michele Di Stefano, Matteo Levaggi.Each of them has found a key access to get into the subjective universe of the score.The audience then will see three solos interpreted by Cristina Rizzo herself, whose function willbe reshaped in this transition among different places of the corporeal act.
