The Moor Krad of the dance company Ertza will be released on December 9. The premiere of the play will take place at the Arriaga Theatre in Bilbao at 19:30 hours.

Moor Krad is a work directed by Guipuzkoan dancer and choreographer Asier Zabaleta. It lacks text and uses contemporary dance as its main language, combined with the techniques of the last decades: it also allows for crump, tutting and urban dances. "An exciting movement, without text, to say what words can't say," you can read on the sheet of the work.

It is a work that gives importance to the treatment of light, as they have sought a monochrome lighting to give dominance to the dancers' bodies, an aspect on which Junky Mayo has been commissioned and which has been designed by Pello Artola. As for music, John Dowland and Henry Purcell rely on a selection of pieces of Baroque composers and update Marx Kanou musicians with electronic music. Singer Iosu Yeregui sings live songs.

Moor Krad is a work whose objective is to bring to light the "shadow we all keep". "Throughout life we suppress these characteristics for various reasons and keep them in the dark room of our personality, thinking they are not ours," the synopsis states. The characters in Moor Krad, represented by Valerio Di Giovanni, Rafke Van Houplines, Pilar Andrés, Denis Martínez, Thiago Luiz Almeida and Iosu Yeregui, know that they have a dark side and that this party shapes them as people. "That's why they don't hide contradictions and appear as they are."

"In Moor Krad there are no lies, no double standards or parallel life. Here everything there is comes to light. We are born in Aratz, but, to please others and be accepted, we dedicate much of childhood and youth to decide in a bag what our characteristics are; and the rest of the time we dedicate it to emptying…".
