De-formation

Our desire is to give wings to young learners, to give them a taste for creation by giving them carte blanche to write their ideas and desires. This is a way of weaving utopias, challenging a common but unknown term for most mortals: sky, air. And once there, we dance!

The work process was divided into different stages: the stage of meeting with each of the artistic fields, the stage of reflection and research and final residency of 10 days in the theatre of Scène nationale de l’Essonne, Agora – Desnos with the artistic and technical teams.

The result could be seen in two performances at the same theatre of the Scène nationale de l’Essonne, Agora – Desnos

We want the second-year students of the Flic Circus School to perform what they have in hand, a gem! The material used sometimes has the charm of having a life of its own; each element, each object present in the market ofle Ballon, is a small story. It is these stories that we will tell them, full of eddies, balances, waterfalls, acrobatics, juggling… We sell nothing but our sincerity and simplicity at the price of smiles and hugs. Matter is a means, but not our end. Our goal is to share the invisible, the impalpable. That which makes the heartbeat.

Let’s see if we manage it ….

A show dedicated to Carol Rama, a painter from Turin …

Numerous people have taken part in this research process, including journalists (Jon Sistiaga, Olga Rodríguez …), economists (Vicenç Navarro, Juan Antonio Jimeno …), lawyers and professors (Joan Garcés, Juan Carlos Monedero …), clowns (Antón valen, Javier Rey …) choreographers, (Sol Picó, Núria Legarda …), circus professionals (Escarlata Circus, Alba Sarraute …) authors (Fermín Cabal, Juan Cavestany , Marc Rosich, Alfredo Sanzol …), directors (Alex Ollé, Miquel de l’Arc, Alfredo Sanzol …), producers and managers (Pere Pinyol, Joseba Gil, Maria Valls …), assistant directors Laura Galán, Laura Tajada …) and of course actors and actresses (Aitana Sánchez Gijón, Carmen Machi, Pedro Casablanca, Alberto San Juan, Luis Bermejo, Raúl Arévalo, Silvia Marsó, Guillermo Toledo, Fernando Tejero, Juan Diego Botto, Pepón Nieto, Rulo Pardo …).

To give the meaning of this continuous research, the set designer Roberta Scamuzzi was chosen who, together with the director and the guys, created an installation of chairs that becomes an integral part of the show: “Life is a search, a success. Here, then, is the chair, a stylized object for everyday use, now torn from its original function and coloured by another life, personified or elevated as a symbol of the human condition, it acquires symbolic force and becomes an extreme metaphor of conquest-loss, identity, presence-absence, pain-death, fragility, love, warmth, play, the need to communicate, and significance itself”. (Roberta Scamuzzi)
