Moroccan choreographer Bouchra Ouizguen creates Este Mundo with the Madeira-based company Dançando com a Diferença — a collage of fantasies, gestures and chance built from the singularity of five performers, where fado, bells and Bollywood rhythms meet without anyone having to resemble anyone else.

Full details

Synopsis A collage of fantasies, gestures and coincidences, built from the singularity of five performers. In Este Mundo, five performers walk, breathe, curl up, roll, come closer, move apart. They dance with pleasure or are simply there. Bouchra Ouizguen starts from these simple gestures and from what each person brings with them to build a piece where no one has to resemble anyone else. Bárbara is lightness. Sofia, verticality. Sara, warmth and energy. Telmo, weight and stability. Joana, suspension and balance. They are not characters, but qualities from which gestures, images and relationships are built. Este Mundo brings together things that do not need to match. Fado, bells, echoes that bring Madeira and Morocco closer, the rhythms and vibrant colours of Bollywood. Personal fantasies, everyday gestures, memories, chance, humour, silence and the pleasure of doing something just because. Perhaps that is what keeps this world alive: people together, without any of them having to stop being singular in order to be part of the same place. Bouchra Ouizguen is a Moroccan dancer and choreographer, born in 1980 in Ouarzazate. She lives and works in Marrakech, where she has been involved in developing a local choreographic scene since 1998. Her work is fuelled by her interest in cinema, literature and music. In the liberating Madame Plaza (SACD Choreographic Revelation Prize), she shares the stage with artists from the Aïta tradition. She continued her collaboration with these artists in Ha! (2013). In February 2014, she created Corbeaux, a sculpture-piece for 17 dancers, presented at the Art In Marrakech Biennale. In 2015, she brought together four artists who had already taken part in previous works to create Ottof. In 2017, she imagined Jerada for the dancers of Carte Blanche, the Norwegian National Company of Contemporary Dance (Critics' Prize for Best Dance Show in Norway). In 2022, she created Eléphant, a choreographic and musical piece. They Always Come Back, a performance designed for and with a group of amateur participants, was presented at the 2025 edition of the Festival d'Avignon. Her shows are presented internationally in institutions such as the Tate Modern, the National Museum of Modern and Contemporary Art in Seoul, the Brooklyn Museum, the Power Station of Art in Shanghai, among others. Dancing with a Difference (DcD) is a Portuguese professional contemporary dance company, recognised for its artistic innovation, technical excellence and promotion of body diversity. Since its foundation in Madeira, in 2001, the company has asserted the importance of the Non-Normative Body/Dissident Body on national and international stages. It promotes artistic literacy, cultural inclusion and the personal and professional development of performers. Under the artistic direction of Henrique Amoedo, DcD combines artistic creation, research and educational action. It develops structured projects of social and cultural impact in Portugal and abroad, with the aim of strengthening social cohesion, intergenerational dialogue and the democratisation of access to art.

Show original (Portuguese)

Sinopse Uma colagem de fantasias, gestos e acasos, construída a partir da singularidade de cinco intérpretes. Em Este Mundo , cinco intérpretes caminham, respiram, enrolam-se, rebolam, aproximam-se, afastam-se. Dançam com prazer ou estão simplesmente ali. Bouchra Ouizguen parte destes gestos simples e daquilo que cada pessoa traz consigo para construir uma peça onde ninguém tem de se parecer com ninguém. Bárbara é leveza. Sofia, verticalidade. Sara, calor e energia. Telmo, peso e estabilidade. Joana, suspensão e equilíbrio. Não são personagens, mas qualidades a partir das quais se constroem gestos, imagens e relações. Este Mundo junta coisas que não precisam de combinar. Fado, sinos, ecos que aproximam a Madeira e Marrocos, os ritmos e as cores vibrantes de Bollywood. Fantasias pessoais, gestos quotidianos, memórias, acaso, humor, silêncio e o prazer de fazer uma coisa só porque sim. Talvez seja isso que mantém este mundo vivo: pessoas juntas, sem que nenhuma tenha de deixar de ser singular para fazer parte do mesmo lugar. Bouchra Ouizguen é uma bailarina e coreógrafa marroquina, nascida em 1980 em Ouarzazate. Vive e trabalha em Marraquexe, onde se tem envolvido no desenvolvimento de uma cena coreográfica local desde 1998. O seu trabalho é alimentado pelo seu interesse pelo cinema, pela literatura e pela música. Na libertadora Madame Plaza (Prémio de Revelação Coreográfica da SACD), partilha o palco com artistas provenientes da tradição das Aïtas. Prossegue a colaboração com estas artistas em Ha! (2013). Em fevereiro de 2014, cria Corbeaux, peça-escultura para 17 bailarinas, apresentada na Bienal Art In Marrakech. Em 2015, reúne quatro artistas que já tinham participado em peças anteriores para criar Ottof. Em 2017, imagina Jerada para os bailarinos da Carte Blanche, Companhia Nacional de Dança Contemporânea da Noruega (Prémio da Crítica para Melhor Espetáculo de Dança na Noruega). Em 2022, cria Eléphant, peça coreográfica e musical.
