THE DANCE COMPANY
Compagnia Petrillo Danza was founded in 2000.
The choreographic language with which Loris Petrillo creates the Company’s vast repertory is clearly the result of his own personal path, contaminated by different artistic languages ranging from Capoeira to Northern European physical theatre, alongside a research program determined by the physicality and personality of each of his dancers.

A few moments captured from the week with Minsu Kim, phenomenal South Korean dancer and choreographer of Lucas Crew.
After being selected for the KUTE project 2026, he led the SPECIFIC dancers through an immersive and captivating creative process.
A huge thank you also to the wonderful dancer and Minsu Kim's assistant, Ayane Nakamura, for her invaluable presence.
The week wraps up today with a final showing of the work with the generous and beautiful SPECIFIC dancers — but this is far from over...
We are thrilled to announce that the piece curated by Minsu Kim will be among those presented at the SPECIFIC dancers' final performance.
We will be announcing the date very soon, stay tuned! 🗓️
