“Pink Flamingos, Crazy Horses” is a spicy and playful dance performance by choregraphers Renate Keerd and Maria Ibarretxe. They started co-working in the frames of FreshTracks Europe project in 2012 in Gent. The first meeting gave birth to strong creative connection and sense of making a piece together. So here they come – pink flamingos and crazy horses! The inner animal will be freed and stereotypes turned around, or vice versa. The focus sets on the word “game”.
