The second cohort of third year students of the full time undergraduate programme in Dance Studies at the University of Malta embarks on their final year tour. It is an important part of the programme that students acquire experience both in the practical/performance and theoretical aspects of Dance.

In Gozo, the students will be giving an informal performance sharing with questions and answers, which starts at 11.00am, at the Sports Complex in Victoria, entrance is free of charge.

The final year tour enables students to engage with contemporary dance makers and new choreographers in performances that use a variety of spaces and models (from traditional theatre venues to informal spaces for lecture demonstrations).

This year, choreographies include contemporary dance works by Francesca Tranter (Malta), Sara Accettura (Italy), Nico Monaco (Holland), Mavin Khoo (UK) and former graduate Valentina Azzopardi (Malta). Lighting design is by Moritz Zavan.

There will also be performances in Malta, which are as follows:

16 & 17 NOV: MITP, University of Malta (Old University, Valletta) 8pm; 5 Euro

27 NOV: Auditorio La Vallisa, Bari, Italy 7pm & 9pm; 10 euros
