Pirri’s scenes, Dorella’s sounds and Amico’s floating lights, together with the choreographies by gruppo nanou, plunge the audience into a dreamlike, timeless place inhabited by visions and characters from Dante’s Paradiso. Everything moves and vibrates with a view to absorb the public, just like Dante was absorbed into a wonder he could hardly describe in words. Paradiso is an “other” space, inhabited by light, evanescent figures; a wide shot where choreography and visual art are in synergy. And it becomes clear that there is a need to return to an avant-garde where choreographic art can act as a link, expressing a will to absorb all artistic disciplines into a new pact between performance, performing space and public.

from 17 June to 2 July (every day except on Monday) at 6 and 9 pm
