Joburg Ballet dancer Mario Gaglione and his cast of four extraordinary dancers bring Pasolini 100 to the stage, a heartfelt homage to the brilliant Pier Paolo Pasolini – an Italian poet, filmmaker, writer and intellectual.

The ballet delves into Pasolini's life, showcasing his unique perspective through movement, dance theatre, video documentaries, and an intimate atmosphere that draws you close to the man himself. Gaglione has for the last few years emerged as an acclaimed choreographer in the South African dance scene. Joined by a cast of incredible professional dancers, Chloé Blair, Ivan Domiciano, Monike Cristina and Revil Yonn, they will bring the story of Pasolini to life through movement with two shows at 17:00 and 19:00 at Joburg Theatre's Lesedi Theatre.
