Theatre play in Italian - Cosmos
Somewhere, something incredible is waiting to be known. (Carl Sagan)
Cosmos is a reflection on the beauty of the universe: planets, stars, galaxies, and the space that unites and separates them, are so mysterious that they nourish the most daring fantasies. eVolution dance theatre reinvents the famous black light theatre in which darkness and the skilful use of light and visual effects give life to enthralling and exciting performances. Cosmos, the latest work by Anthony Heinl and Nadessja Casavecchia, turns its gaze towards the universe, a place where fantastic, floating, poetic figures move within imaginative spaces. The performance is the result of a long and participatory process in which each performer contributes to the final result of the show, enriching it with her wealth of experience ranging from classical dance to urban dance, from contemporary dance to acrobatics. Like every eVolution dance theatre creation, Cosmos testifies how research in terms of technological innovation can amplify, without ever replacing, the emotional and artistic contribution of its performers. Music, a fundamental element in the construction of the narrative, accompanies and intensifies the suggestions of each individual painting. Cosmos takes the spectator on a journey through unknown places, where science and understanding give way to imagination. Thanks to the creative and at the same time “pop” approach that characterises the entire production of eVolution dance theatre, the show leaves the spectator with the feeling of having experienced an unforgettable journey, to a vast space beyond the boldest imagination. To welcome him, on his return, the fragile and beautiful Earth, a small world in the midst of the immensity of worlds.
