From 26 to 28 April, between Collegno and Turinthe spring festival comes to life Spring Rolls: a season to pour bodies and voices into public space, a thunderous multitude that erupts like a joyful avalanche. Spring Rolls evokes a recipe that brings together colorful and different flavours, celebrating the end of winter with an acupuncture of the senses, but also with the act of whirling around, an advance of desires that overwhelms spaces and times in a dance that stuns. Meetings, workshops, shows to celebrate spring and the anniversary of the UNESCO Day of Dance.
