The National Dance Company will inaugurate the next season of the MUN theater.

Tickets are now available for purchase online or at the locker, with a 15% discount for advance sales until August 31. There are also season tickets for three shows

The exhibition program includes the new production by Antoni Muntadas for the MUN, which can be visited from October 15 onwards.

The National Dance Company will open the MUN 's fall performing arts season on September 25 with the following program Petipawhich includes two works by the great choreographer: Paquita Grand Pas Classique and Raymonda Divertimento. Thus, the CND returns to the MUN, whose theater it inaugurated, to premiere the revival of two masterpieces of dance of all time, which have been an important part of the company's career, under the direction of Muriel Romero, who highlights the tribute she wanted to make to Petipa with these two "emblematic ballets in the history of dance".

It will be followed by the preview of Gesto (October 4), with Taiat Dansa, an interactive proposal aimed at family audiences, which encourages children to be part of the show on stage. The third milestone will be the world premiere of Nocesa co-production of the MUN with Led Silhouette from Navarre and the Pamplona Chamber Choir (October 31), a large-format work with live music inspired by Les Noces, the work Bronislava Nijinska choreographed for Les Ballets Ruses with music by Stravinsky, this time also by Lorca and Carles Suriñat.

"Inspired by the choreographic, board member and instrumental artifact that Nijinska and Stravinsky devised, we present a proposal that respects it scrupulously and projects it even more if possible, generating a dialogue with the music that Lorca dreamed for his Weddings through the musical muscle of Suriñach", comments David Gálvez, director of the Choir. "Noces will propose two musical textures: the one we call 'pit', more hieratic, that speaks of the rite, of the house, of the fixed and apparently well-armed Structures ; and the 'scene', something more organic, more alive, that sample the sanguine face of the nuptial rite, that speaks of home and of the people who inhabit it and leave it, enjoy it and suffer it", he reveals.

Noces "does not seek to give answers, but to invite the public to ask questions. It starts from the recognizable but immerses us in the deepest part of the human being, in that territory where affections, bonds and care build our way of being in the world," says Martxel Rodriguez, co-creator and co-director of Led Silhouette. -We think that each spectator will be able to find his or her own vibration with the proposal. As an experience that happens in the body, in the shared time".

Working with MUN is a truly stimulating experience," he adds. - It is a space that in recent years has become a benchmark for the performing arts and belonging to this group of artists is a real pleasure for us. We feel accompanied in this creative process in depth and very well cared for".

With a 15% discount for advance sales until August 31, tickets for all shows can now be purchased at the locker and on the website. There is also a season ticket for three shows (Noces, Naranjas, naranjas. Limones, limones and Me parece que sufro lo que en mi profesión llaman nostalgia) for 39 euros; and a family pack for Gesto.

As highlighted by the artistic director of the MUN, Teresa Lasheras, the program will have a special focus on emerging talent: Naranjas, naranjas. Limones, limones, by Lucía Campillo (October 10), which combines dance and performance in a comic core topic ; Me parece que sufro lo que en mi profesión llaman nostalgia (by Recuerdo issue 7, October 17), and No ( by La Venidera, October 25). The calendar will be completed with the presence of urban and robotic dance(Famulus 4.0., by Iron Skulls, November 11) and with two titles in partnership with the Government of Navarra - DNA 2024 (Todo este ruido, by Qabalum, October 22; Sin fichero attachment, Cía Erain, October 23).

This is a program, said Lasheras, "for all audiences. The MUN has a consolidated audience, but seeks to expand the range as much as possible so that anyone can enjoy the experience of dance, through different styles: contemporary, Spanish dance, urban, classical...

In addition, as part of The Classics Today, theater returns to the MUN with Life is a Dream, with the National Academic Dramatic Theater Lesya Ukrainka (November 19), a peculiar proposal of this play by Calderón de la Barca, with text in Ukrainian.

A new creation by Muntadas

The exhibition season will open with Dear viewer, what are you looking at ( August 24), a sample curated by five graduates of the Master's Degree in curatorial programs of study at MUN. This is the Final Master's Degree (TFM) work chosen among those of their class to be shown in theaters. The proposal approaches the Fundación ARCO collection with a focus on the visitor, who completes the works with his or her gaze. Thus, it proposes some visitor models: detective, peephole, hedgehog and projector.

Also noteworthy is Antoni Muntadas ' newly produced sample (October 15), generated as part of his participation in the Tender Bridges artistic residency program. In addition, there will be an exhibition by Charles Clifford (September 30) and a new exhibition space by photographer José Ortiz Echagüe, without forgetting the novelty of the installation of permanent collection rooms. entrance to the exhibitions will continue to be free throughout 2025, thanks to the partnership the Pamplona City Council. The general director of the MUN, Jaime García del Barrio, emphasized that this free admission has led to an increase of around 30% in visits.

Continuing with the MUN's purpose of being ever closer to its audiences, the performative lecture Introduction to Opera (November 7) has been programmed with the Fundación Operística de Navarra. This will be the fourth consecutive year that this art has been part of the MUN's programming: last season, Verdi's Falstaff was premiered (its own production); the previous season, Puccini's Tosca (co-produced with AGAO); and in the 22-23 season, La zarzuela de los paraguas, all of them with the participation of 150 students who are part of the Symphony Orchestra and the Choir of the University of Navarra, and the Theater training Plan.
