Ceyda Tanc Dance - AYNA (Early)

Brighton Festival 2025 presents AYNA by Ceyda Tanc Dance - Two
days, four performances. 9th and 10th of May at 5:30pm and 8pm

Mirroring choreographer Ceyda Tanc’s dual heritage, AYNA weaves Turkish folk dance traditions with modern British social dance, reflecting on the power of dance to unite us. With hypnotic rhythm and striking synchronicity, an all-female cast reference the meditative movements of whirling dervishes, traditionally practiced by men.

Set in a nightclub with a live DJ, Asta Hiroki, blending Eastern and
Western sounds and a digital community cast, this unmissable
performance celebrates dance, togetherness, and the universal desire for belonging.

Led by British-Turkish Choreographer, Ceyda Tanc, the company's
athletic contemporary dance work is influenced by traditional Turkish folk dance. Their distinctive aesthetic subverts virtuoso movements of male Turkish folk dancers with an all-female cast, expressing captivating forms, unified strength and a strong yet sensual energy.
