Parallel Warm-Up with Afonso Cunha

Dancing is how we understand each other: before we watch a performance, it’s time for Aquecimento Paralelo [Parallel Warm-Up] with Afonso Cunha. In this activity, we wear comfortable clothes, and discover, through experimenting and dancing, what we will see on stage. 

Afonso Cunha began his artistic career as a breakdance dancer in 2006. He trained in contemporary dance at the Professional School Balleteatro. In 2015, he participates in Lastro, by Né Barros. As of 2016, he continues his training, in Salzburg, on a four-year course at SEAD (Salzburg Experimental Academy of Dance), where he had the opportunity to work with several foreign dancers and choreographers. He returns to Portugal in 2020 and joins the cast of Neve, A História do Soldado and Co:Lateral, by Né Barros. More recently, he was part of the cast of Lowlands, by Hélder Seabra, from Companhia Instável. He is an interpreter of Distante - Paisagens, Máquinas e Animais, by Né Barros.
