The National Center for Culture & Arts (NCCA) of King Hussein ‎Foundation is proud to host the 7th Annual Amman Contemporary Dance Festival (ACDF) which falls in ‎line with its mission to promote cultural exchange and enhance the theater and dance movements in ‎Jordan.

 

The ACDF falls within the Masahat Dance Network, a regional network comprising of Maqamat ‎Dance ‎Theatre in Lebanon and Sareyyet Ramallah - First Ramallah Group in Palestine; Tanween ‎Dance ‎Theatre in Syria and the National Center for Culture and Arts in Jordan. The importance ‎of MASAHAT ‎Dance Network is in providing a unique opportunity for companies to tour to all ‎festivals in the partner ‎countries allowing for leading choreographers to exchange experiences ‎with local artists and ‎reinforcing the importance of dialogue and cultural diversity.

 

This year’s festival, which is held from 14-25 April, 2015, we have chosen to include renowned ‎contemporary dance companies from Switzerland, USA, UK, Spain and Norway in a variety of ‎performances .It is our hope that at each festival, our audiences get the ‎chance to view leading dance companies utilizing unique techniques and to further their appreciation ‎of the aesthetics of contemporary dance.
