The Magpie Music Dance Company celebrates its ten year anniversary with nine days of performances, workshops, exhibitions and a seminar. Magpie is a collective of improvising dancers, musicians and a lighting designer. Like a magpie, they ‘steel’ something from every genre: from classical ballet to new dance, from punk, electronics, jazz and rock to contemporary concert music. The unique collaboration with a lighting designer creates new playgrounds in a highly spontaneous way, which has a profound influence on the ambiance of the performance.
