«Arrivals»
a dance evening of French contemporary dance

"Arrivals" is part of the international festival Hydra Dance Days.
At PLYFA we present a vibrant spectrum of the contemporary French dance scene,
ranging from dance-theatre to abstract contemporary ballet.

Five companies bring five distinct visions of what it means to be women and men
in today's world, exploring love, loneliness, friendship, sometimes with humor,
and sometimes...without.
