The frantic and unending race of an individual indifferent to life’s hindrances and to the strangers who cross his path. He runs, runs, runs, falls down and gets up again, runs and never stops. A ring, a circle, a round. The vanity of existence and the self-centredness that avoids others. The infinite and innumerable facets of human nature, which can shift from joy to pain, from fear to astonishment, from pleasure to shame in a split second. Points of view. Conceptual divergences. A wedding dress.
These are only a few of the possible impressions, but on the stage of Teatro Vascello on March 27th and on the two following days the Atacama Company actually presents a choreographic research dense with meaning, dense with meanings. The unending contradictions of contemporary humanity, floating between opposite feelings, result in a choral improvisation of body and mind, in an exchange between dancers and choreographers. A poetic and visionary result which combines movement and a speculation on the words and gestures of the dancer-actors populating the stage with their own bodies and minds. The project could not have taken place without the successful collaboration with the composer Sergio de Vito, who created the original music in a crescendo of dissonance, and with Danila Blasi who designed the minimal but highly effective lighting. On stage the dancers Valeria Baresi, Anna Basti, Ilaria Bracaglia, Cristina Meloro and Marco Ubaldi, with an evident theatrical experience, embody the facets of interiority with a clear and tangible performance.
