On 14 and 15 February, Centro Danza Matadero - CDM (Nave 11) will host the latest creation by the Leïla Ka Company. Maldonne is a highly evocative piece that explores the fragilities rebellion and multiple identities that co-exist within femininity.
Five female dancers perform in forty different dresses – evening dresses, wedding dresses, night dresses, casual dresses and ball dresses. Sequined, long, puffy, fitted and oversized. Dresses that fly, that shine, that burst, that spin, that trail on the ground or fall.In Maldonne, Leïla Ka explores womanhood through bodies grappling with dresses that dazzle, stifle or rebel.
Leïla Ka creates choreography for Beyoncé, the César Awards Ceremony, Zaho de Sagazan, or the National Ballet of Chile. Drawing on her urban and contemporary influences, she has made a name for herself in the dance world in just a few years.
Maldonne is her first group piece and has been nominated for the International Bloom Prize of the Sadler’s Wells.
