17-30 Giugno 2018 II Edizione DAP Fesfival (Danza in Arte a Pietrasanta) COMUNICATO STAMPA | PROGRAMMA | PRESENTAZIONE FESTIVAL DAP FESTIVAL Città di Pietrasanta | Pietrasanta (Lu), 17-30 giugno 2018 New Dance Drama II edizione Associazione Culturale | La Versiliana Festival | DAP Festival (Danza in Arte a Pietrasanta) torna per il secondo anno a fare Centro Arti Visive dialogare le arti, con Kevin Alexeander Stea danzatore di Madonna e star Pietrasanta (CAVP) | internazionale a Los Angeles, e lo scultore spagnolo residente a New York Manolo Valdes. [email protected] www.dapfestival.com Inoltre il DAP Festival dal 17 al 30 giugno amplia la propria proposta aggiungendo il musical a danza e la musica, animando così la città e le piazze di Pietrasanta con coreografi e ballerini di fama internazionale. Due gli intenti: formare giovani danzatori, artisti del musical, attori e musicisti, ma anche creare spettacoli cucendo addosso ai luoghi simbolo di Pietrasanta coreografie appositamente studiate da professionisti di fama internazionale. Alla fine del percorso (il 30 giugno) si terrà un grande spettacolo di gala al Gran Teatro La Versiliana, immerso nella pineta che ispirò “L’Alcyone” a Gabriele D’Annunzio. “Viviamo in una cittadina dalla vocazione artistica conclamata da secoli. Ricordiamo che qui Michelangelo nel 1518 stipulava una serie di contratti per l’allogazione dei marmi destinati alla facciata di San Lorenzo, come ricorda la lapide posta in Piazza del Duomo. Ora Pietrasanta è diventata la città dell’Arte e della Scultura per antonomasia, con artisti che provengono da ogni dove per realizzare le proprie opere grazie alla grande maestria degli artigiani di Pietrasanta.” spiega la direttrice artistica del Festival Adria Ferrali, già danzatrice della Martha Graham Dance Company, insegnante e coreografa ospite al Royal Danish Ballet ed altre prestigiose scuole e teatri del mondo. “Ogni luogo ha un’anima, quella di Pietrasanta è legata all’arte e al suo grande spessore culturale. Arte intesa anche come commistione fra generi differenti, sempre di altissimo valore”. Danza in Arte a Pietrasanta (DAP) è infatti un festival unico nel suo genere in cui le Arti Performative (Danza, Musica, Canto) si fondono con le Arti Visive in un nuovo linguaggio universale che si manifesta anche al di fuori dei teatri in luoghi inattesi e suggestivi come il Pontile di Marina di Pietrasanta e le tante opere sparse sul territorio. Il DAP Festival ha stretto accordi con importanti istituzioni estere come la Richard Alston Dance Company di Londra; la russa Ksenia Mikheeva Dance Company, la cui fondatrice è coreografa per l’Accademia di Danza di Boris Eifman a San Pietroburgo; il collettivo coreografico norvegeseSubjazz; l’innovativo americano Movement Migration. Inoltre annovera ospiti d’eccezione come il coreografo e giovane danzatore del Royal Danish Theatre Sebastian Kloborg, la prima ballerina del San Francisco Ballet Maria Kochetkova e la star di Broadway, nonché danzatrice solista della Martha Graham Dance Company, Katherine Crockett. Giusto per citarne alcune. Due inoltre le COMUNICATO STAMPA | PROGRAMMA | PRESENTAZIONE FESTIVAL Città di Pietrasanta | università internazionali coinvolte: la Troy University con sede in Alabama (USA) New Dance Drama il cui programma di studi al DAP College è ufficializzato dal AACUPI (Association Associazione Culturale | of American College and University Programs in Italy) e la Kemerovo State University of Culture and Arts, una delle cinque più importanti Università della La Versiliana Festival | Russia. Centro Arti Visive Pietrasanta (CAVP) | Il progetto 2018 [email protected] Il progetto di questa seconda edizione parte dall’incontro fra il coreografo www.dapfestival.com americano Kevin Alexander Stea e lo scultore newyorkese di origini spagnole Manolo Valdès rappresentato dalla galleria Contini Venezia. Kevin Stea è stato primo ballerino di Madonna, ha lavorato con Gloria Estefan, Prince, Michael Jackson, Beyoncé, David Bowie, Lady Gaga, Rihanna, Ricky Martin. Inoltre ha prestato la sua immagine a numerosi stilisti fra i quali Jean Paul Gaultier, Thierry Mugler, Tommy Hilfiger, Romeo Gigli. Al suo fianco vi saranno coreografi internazionali le cui performances trasformeranno gli spazi della città in teatri improvvisati. Luoghi già con forte impatto emotivo: il Pontile di Tonfano con vista che dal mare spazia sulle Alpi Apuane, il sagrato del Duomo, “Key to a Dream” di Kan Yasuda, “Peace Frame” di Artist Nall e le numerose opere monumentali sparse in questo delizioso comune della Versilia storica. Manolo Valdes sarà il protagonista della mostra dell’estate fra piazza Duomo e Sant’Agostino. I costumi per lo spettacolo di gala della serata del 30 giugno presso La Versiliana saranno curati dalla Sartoria Teatrale Fiorentina di Massimo Poli, ed ispirati alle opere dell’artista. Inoltre, novità di questa seconda edizione, faranno parte del team musicistidi fama mondiale: il Maestro Michael Guttman (direttore del Festival di Musica da Camera ‘Pietrasanta in Concerto’) e ospiti speciali come Emmanuel Rossfelder (vincitore del “Masters of the Guitar “a Parigi), Robert Gibson (docente alla Troy University), Kim Helweg del Teatro Reale Danese. Quest’anno Dap Festival si arricchisce di una sezione Musical, che avrà come esito la realizzazione di un estratto del “Peter Pan” sotto la direzione di Pietro Pignatelli e con la direzione musicale di Davide Magnabosco. Il “Peter Pan” andrà in scena il 30 giugno durante il Gran Galà sul palco de ‘La Versiliana’, a chiusura della II edizione del DAP Festival. Gli studenti del Dap College canteranno e danzeranno sulle note di Edoardo Bennato in un progetto multiculturale unico nel suo genere.

In the years since its first performance at the Celebration Theater in Los Angeles, the staged version of “Naked Boys Singing” has become an international phenomenon, playing successfully in more than 40 cities and in six languages all over the globe. Director Troy Christian has restaged the play for the film and come up with new arrangements for the original songs. The opening song, “Gratuitous Nudity,” is written and performed in such a sense of fun as to help the audience get over any nervousness they might have about the nudity. Before you know it, most people forget the performers are still naked, well, kind-of, but of course, that’s one of the points made in this light- hearted study of nudity, what we think of it and how we react to it. Naked Boys Singing! is a fun, joyous, and even liberating experience, guaranteed to touch your heart in places and leave you with a smile on your face. You may even find yourself afterwards singing some of the songs in the shower.

Thank-you. http://www.themjcast.com/episode-064-vincent-paterson-special/ Q (The MJCast): We got something pretty cool today to share with everyone, haven't we? Jamon (The MJCast): Yeah, we do. We've got an interview with one of Michael's chief collaborators, an amazing choreographer by the name of Vincent Paterson. He has a documentary that is titled "The Man Behind the Throne", and I think that's a really accurate way of describing him. He's a guy that often isn't in the limelight around Michael's career, but is somebody that had a crucial, crucial role in the in the visual aspects of a lot of Michael's art. Q: And a huge footprint in pop culture, I believe, so-- Jamon: Absolutely. Q: Yeah, well, I guess we should just get to the show. Jamon: Let's do it! [Intro] Q: Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the MJCast! I'm Q, and I'm here today with my co-host and Jamon Bull. Now, when people talk about Michael Jackson's career, names often mentioned: studio geniuses Berry Gordy, Quincy Jones, and Bruce Swedien. For me, a name that should certainly be mentioned right alongside, and of just as much importance is choreographer and director Vincent Paterson. Jamon: Yeah, Vincent Paterson began his career with Michael working as an assistant choreographer and lead dancer on the "Beat It" and "Thriller" short films, before continuing on to ideate and choreograph the timeless masterpiece of film "Smooth Criminal".

  • Strike a Pose
    BOND/360 Presents STRIKE A POSE A FILM BY ESTER GOULD AND REIJER ZWAAN RT: 83 min Rating: Not Rated Website: www.madonnadancers.com North American press: Silversalt PR Thessa Mooij Laura Schwab 646.637.4700 347.401.0825 [email protected] [email protected] SHORT SYNOPSIS In 1990, seven young male dancers - six gay, one straight - joined Madonna on her most controversial tour. On stage and in the iconic film Truth or Dare they showed the world how to express yourself. Now, 25 years later, they reveal the truth about life during and after the tour. Strike a Pose is a dramatic tale about overcoming shame and finding the courage to be who you are. LONG SYNOPSIS In 1990, seven young dancers joined pop star Madonna on her most controversial world tour. Wild, talented and barely twenty, the dancers set out on the trip of a lifetime. Their journey was captured in Truth or Dare, one of the highest-grossing documentaries ever. As a self-proclaimed mother to her six gay dancers plus straight Oliver, Madonna used the film to take a stand on gay rights, freedom of expression and the fight against AIDS. Madonna’s flamboyant dancers became icons of sexual freedom, inspiring people all over the world to be who you are. At the height of the AIDS epidemic and in the aftermath of the conservative Reagan era, Truth or Dare introduced audiences to fun-loving, bold and larger-than-life gay characters. The film was ground-breaking, featuring two guys kissing passionately during the famous Truth or Dare scene.

  • Madonna’S Former Dancers €˜Strike a Pose’ in Revealing Logo Documentary
    Madonna’s Former Dancers ‘Strike a Pose’ In Revealing Logo Documentary 02.17.2017 Logo unleashed a gripping sneak peek of the upcoming documentary Strike a Pose, due in April. The 2-minute trailer spotlights seven of Madonna's male dancers, who joined the entertainer for her controversial "Blonde Ambition" world tour in 1990 and documents how their lives changed, using both old and new footage along with never-before-seen images. The featured dancers are Oliver Crumes III, Carlton Wilborn, Luis Camacho, Salim "Slam" Gauwloos, Kevin Stea, Jose Gutierez and Gabriel Trupin (who passed away in 1995). The film's title comes from the opening line in Madonna's 1990 hit song "Vogue." Voguing was a dance style that evolved out of the Harlem, N.Y., LGBT ballroom scene of the 1980s, and was already a popular art form among African-American and Latino LGBTs before it was later mainstreamed by the singer. A few of Madonna's chosen dancers were already popular ballroom "Voguers," such as Jose Guiterez, who was a member of the House of Xtravaganza. The dancers' high-profile stint on Madonna's tour helped break barriers for generations of LGBT people pushing for more visibility and acceptance; and toured the United States during a socially conservative time in the country-Republican president George Bush, Sr. was in office, the AIDS crisis was still claiming thousands of lives, and LGBT people were openly discriminated against in almost all segments of society. "The daring progressive message was that you can be gay and human," said an interviewee in the clip.

Rupert Everett, Red Carpets andOther Banana Skins SOME READERS MAY say that my dark side caused me to write this book, others that my sister’s did. Some may say that seeing Madonna through my eyes is a way of fully comprehending her; others who believe she walks on water won’t. There are many ways of looking at this story—as a memoir of a shared childhood, as the celebration of an icon who turns fifty this year, as my autobiography…and as my answer to the eternal question “What is it really like being Madonna’s brother?” I had originally hoped that this book would also be a way for me to define myself and separate from my sister at last.
