The second Every Body’s Spectacular Festival sees the collaboration between LÓKAL and Reykjavík Dance Festival continue in the form the Every Body’s Spectacular festival concept that brings together international and national artists from across the performing arts onto one shared platform.
The focus remains on artists whose practices challenge and stretch the dominant modes of the performing arts field, and equally artists whose work looks to localise its questions and practices in dialogue with the city and those dwelling in it.
Through performances, happenings, talks, parties and social gatherings the festival looks to take place in art and non-art spaces across the city and beyond – in significant collaboration with those dwelling there.
