One Drop of Water in the Whole Wide World

One Drop of Water in the Whole Wide World is an original creation by K2 Dance Company (Vila Nova de Gaia, Portugal), the ensemble of young dancers of the Ginas­i­ano School of Dance. The original text of Nuno Preto aims to provoke a message of aware­ness and cit­izen­ship to young­sters (3-10), about the future/dystopia reality that unveils the current lack of water re­sources in the global world. This present­a­tion is the result of an in­tens­ively trans­dis­cip­lin­ary artistic res­id­ency between Dance and Con­tem­por­ary Music, which is still open, as is the end of this story. The creative process emerged among the 15 Dancers of K2 Company of Dance and the 5 per­cus­sion­ists of the Superior School of Music and Arts of the Spec­tacle of Oporto, with musical works of Alex Stopa, Owen Condon and Iannis Xenakis, among others.
