Dionysios Alamanos

Born in Athens, Greece, and raised in Zante Island, Dionysios Alamanos started his education at the School of Music and Arts of the Ionian Islands at a young age.

He began experimenting with various styles of street dance alongside his own research on movement and then studied at the National School of Dance, Greece. As a freelancer, he has collaborated with the Hellenic Dance Company both as a dancer and an assistant choreographer for Anton Lachky’s “No More Fairytales” and has also performed an excerpt of Akram Khan’s “Vertical Road”. Furthermore, he has worked with Cocoon Dance Company. He is currently touring with Akram Khan Company and Sue Buckmaster’s production “Chotto Desh”.

In 2015-2016 and in collaboration with Danae Dimitriadi, he created his first piece, “Uncia”, which has been performed in theatres and festivals until today and is now on development for a full- evening version.
