Movimento!  Early Dance and Theatre Ensemble

Movimento! re-creates the beauty and magic of dance and theatrical spectacle in Europe’s princely courts in order to present fragments of our mediaeval, renaissance and baroque heritage.

 

 

 

Hilary White Nunn was the founder and Artistic Director of Movimento! Her vision was the driving force behind this Early Dance and Theatre Company.

Martin Bonhar is the Music Director for Movimento! His  love of the baroque music led him to study early dance with Movimento!

 

Movimento! makes their own costumes authentic to the period of the dance and music.   Fashions have always played an integral role in the evolution of dance.  Performing in costumes that were the height of fashion of the various eras is sheer delight!
