Performance – work in progress
Inspired by Calvino, ‘In the cities’ is an interdisciplinary experimental research and production project that aims to create the contemporary theatre production ‘The Global City’, a performance with a modulate structure able to be composed in a different sequence and to involve international artists, according to the different spaces and contexts hosting the residency phases.
Its original dramaturgy is composed by numbered memories collected in the several metropolises where the company has developed their projects. A fragmented memory characterizes our globalized era: from insuperable borders to forced disappearances, from the Korean diplomatic crisis to the Indian slums.
