WE WANT IT ALL is not a performance, but a 1-hour festival in which Emio Greco and Pieter C. Scholten celebrate their twenty-five years of collaboration. Final chords of their oeuvre are central. After all, the end is not final, but the prelude to a new beginning. The past now takes on a completely different perspective, or a new meaning.
Of the nearly sixty creations presented by the tandem of choreographers between 1995 and 2020, they chose eleven finals. For Greco and Scholten, the end of a performance is a preparation for a new beginning. An ending is an ‘end’, but also an ‘and’. The end is always a preview of a possible future.
From Bach to pop music by Queen, from theatrical to sober and experimental, it all comes together in this dynamic, varied festival performance. It is an excellent opportunity to experience the diversity of the wide-ranging work in which the body in revolt, in whatever capacity, is always leading.
In WE WANT IT ALL, the junior company, ICK-Next, has a prominent role. They are the opening to new times. They disappear and appear between the ensemble dancers, like fresh running water. Thanks to these young dancers, there is always a new perspective.
