‘In Between’ is a solo dance performance in which Evangelos Biskas works with the absurd and irrational character of his own dreams. He uses their images, mood and intentions in order to direct his instinctive physical approach. Experimental hip hop, contemporary and improvisation techniques are blended with each other in unexpected ways, developing an authentic movement language which alters between bizarre isolations, uncontrolled looseness and organic flow.
