Dance Solos 2015
4th Year Students of the Pre-School Education and Grammar School Ljubljana (dance department): Evening of dance solos around the topicof desire to dance
The project Pre-Premiere – evening of young dancers of the Pre-School Education and Grammar School Ljubljana, module contemporary dance – is an event that takes place every year since 2003 in the frame of school activities and presents the final presentation of students and graduates of the school. These productions present a coming together of students of all four years and provide the opportunity for the students to present their work under the mentorship of their teachers – renowned Slovenian contemporary dancers. The artistic leader of the project aims to comprehensively and aesthetically round off individual dances and conjoin the solos and group choreographies into a relevant contemporary artistic evening with a recognizable artistic expression that goes beyond a mere form of a school production. Until now Avant-premiere was taking place on a different locations in Ljubljana and in different partnerships (Cankarjev dom, SMEEL, Španski borci), since 2014 PSEGSL runs its own theater space. The project is produced by Institute EMANAT, and co-produced by Pre-School Education and Grammar School Ljubljana. In this collaboration Avant-premiere 2007-2015 were organized.
