Stage performance
It brings together on stage six virtuoso circus artists from different backgrounds and a very agile actor, carefully chosen for their mutual ability to listen to and understand each other. Group dynamics are at the heart of the project.
Bello! questions the relativity of historical forms of beauty, tyrannical in Italy, and the universality of our need for judgement. The universe is strange, very physical. No number, no apparatus. But a constant search for flight.
A show where acrobats and actors break physical and mental conventions about beauty, transcending stereotypes and their own limits in a collective and continuous stage movement.
Open to all forms of contamination, it makes the harmony of acrobatic movement and words its poetics. Bello! It is a show about the power of wonder and the power of an alert circus, always searching, which subordinates aesthetics to ethics and relentlessly seeks new forms of expression.
Project realised thanks to the support of Fondazione Compagnia di Sanpaolo-Bando Artwaves
“No one has power over beauty. Beauty is something disturbing, something that pierces us, that shakes us. Beauty does not conform.”
