#ABOUT
Ki omOs kineitai is a dance company well-known for its combination of acrobatics, contemporary dance and other creative disciplines. With the premiere of 9.25, the popular group will mark its second appearance at the Athens Epidaurus Festival. The title ‘9.25’ refers to the passing of a train, whose repetitive departure and arrival symbolizes both leaving behind and starting anew. Throughout the piece, performers are involved with a giant wheel-like construction, whose steady movement is a constant, as the piece progresses, gesturing towards the human condition within the vague and obscure definition of time.
