Dancing as a form of resistance

In 2013, Koen Augustijnen, Rosalba Torres, and Hildegard De Vuyst created Badke, a dance performance featuring ten Palestinian performers that toured the world. Now, Palestinian choreographers Amir Sabra and Ata Khatab breathe new life into this modern classic.

Dabke — traditionally danced at Palestinian (wedding) celebrations — undergoes a captivating transformation. With backgrounds in traditional dabke, contemporary dance, hip-hop, capoeira, and circus, the performers present a vibrant, modern take on this festive dance form. An explosion of joy and togetherness, Badke(remix) becomes an antidote to the harsh realities that lurk beneath the festive surface. Here, the will to live and the urge to dance become a form of resistance.

“An irresistible collective energy presents a different image of Palestine through a vital and joyful dance.” Le Soir, Jean-Marie Wynants, on Badke (2013)

"Badke(remix) is geen voorstelling die je rustig bekijkt en nadien analyseert. Wie kijkt, voelt de puls, de herhaling, de ademnood. Het is moeilijk om niet mee te bewegen."
