Agate Bankava is a professional contemporary dancer and choreographer. She holds a BA on "Contemporary Dance Art» from Latvian Academy of Culture and currently she is following a MA on "Contemporary Dance Art" at the Latvian Academy of Culture. She approaches her work with a curiosity and constantly explores the prospect of combining dancing and movement with feelings, perceptions and thoughts. She enjoys working with dancers of various disciplines by them space to discover, unfold and incorporate their own perspective on the performance.

The performance Fafabulala tells the story about the communication of the two. How tolerant and democratic they are, so subjective is their mode of expression. The show will remind us that there is not one truth. The difference is in our attitudes when we are making dialog, tangible or verbal. In life everything is very inconsistent - from tears to laughter, to horror and vice versa.
