The Italian dance company Il Posto specialises in vertical dance, which means movement performed along vertical surfaces. Founded in 1994 in Venice, the company emerged from the partnership between choreographer Wanda Moretti and musician Marco Castelli, formed in order to create performances that combine dance, architecture, and music. Their performances take place on historical and contemporary buildings, indoor and outdoor, on bridges, towers, and cranes, as well as in theatres, museums, and industrial environments. The music is created specifically for each show and is performed live. Il Posto has participated in numerous national and international festivals, including the Singapore Arts Festival, the Bangkok International Dance Festival, the Kuopio Dance Festival in Finland, Lugar a Dança in Lisbon, the Festival des Arts Vivant in Rabat, the Uniteatro Festival in Paraná, the Carnevale di Venezia, and many others. Il Postos performances adapt to any architectural context, highlight the unique features of each venue, and tell stories from a new and surprising perspective.
