Kinkaleri's Provocative Dance Piece 'Some dances on dickfaces' Premieres

other · 2026-04-24

The Italian dance company Kinkaleri, founded thirty years ago, has premiered their latest work 'Some dances on dickfaces' at the Cantieri della Goldonetta. The piece is described as playful, obscene, provocative, and irreverent. Upon entry, the audience receives a postcard with a program note and an empty framed white space instead of an image. Only after leaving the performance does the message become clear: viewers are invited to draw their own 'dickface' of anyone they choose in that blank space. The show itself creates a temporal bubble, making the audience forget the 'dickfaces' they had on their minds before entering. The review by Rodolfo Sacchettini and Anita Romanello on doppiozero highlights the unexpected way the work fulfills the promise of its title.
