Dance New Amsterdam Presents CABULA6's THE ANGOLA PROJECT, 11/7-17

CABULA6 has produced and presented stage and film works all over the world, including Europe, the United States, Africa, Asia and South America. Led by co-artistic directors Jeremy Xido and Claudia Heu, CABULA6 was voted Company of the Year 2009 by Ballettanz Magazine and awarded Outstanding Artist of 2010 by the Austrian Ministry of the Arts. Xido can command an audience as a dancer, filmmaker, actor and writer-sometimes all at once. The company's work ranges from stage pieces to site-specific works, films to projects of social intervention. The company puts emphasis on playfully straddling the border between reality and fiction. The feature documentary detailed in The Angola Project Trilogy is still in the process of being made.
