About Amenti

Immerse yourself in the world’s first Neo Mythical Dance Theatre Company – where old myths are transformed or restored, and new stories arise from the mind of Artistic Leader Gil ‘the Grid’ Gomes Leal.

Amenti Theatre Company (ATC) envisions worlds where the audience is taken on a trip through time and space. With dance as their primary medium of expression—and often combined with live music, acting, puppetry, and imaginative decors—ATC uses their urban background and decolonial thinking at the core of every performance.

About the Performance:

Elemental Exchange – Interactive Performance
The Elemental Exchange is a unique dance experience in which the first meeting between people is a vital concept. It is an authentic and pure moment in which two souls connect. The dancers will be invited to find each other synergistically on the sounds of a live musician and DJ (and dancer) Gil the Grid.

This concept originated from the Hip-hop battle scene, where dancers meet each other more competitively. During the Elemental Exchange, we emphasize exchanging rather than competing to learn from and be inspired by each other, always with the key elements of hip-hop: Peace, Love, Unity, Having Fun, and Self-Knowledge. The different dancers of Amenti, with a wide range of dance styles and identities, will appear on stage during this improvisational performance. Nobody knows what will happen; a surprising and unique moment for everyone there. This interactive performance allows the audience to provide the dancer’s input while on the floor. The elements or ‘layers’ that Amenti uses in their movement discipline are also a recurring concept and a way to connect and communicate during this performance.

Be prepared for different levels of magic, emotion, and special synergetic moments.
