Faces in the city
A performance which deals with the development of the man as he carries his animal and earthly instincts in combination with the purity of his soul. His land is the city that isolates him, creating a conflict between his instincts and his imagination without preventing his liberation. Six performers wear masks using improvisation, creating primal movements and developing them to their every day movements. The performers deal with their instincts, loneliness, and socialization as they try to balance in the urban environment. The performance includes live music. The sound of percussions and wind instruments unfold this journey to the city.
