Track01-Seeds
2007
There’s a fire, a star which
is a foot underground and three fingers under everyone’s skin, between
the seeds that are going to bloom: maybe an animal, maybe a small man;
certainly life. Everybody’s son, nobody’s property. If you listen
carefully, if you listen inside you can hear it: it’s time to come
to the sight, to fight with brand new weapons made of nothing, ‘cos
the beginning of all things resides in the little, it resides in the
powerful frailty of a seed, a bond, a loneliness. let yourself guide,
let yourself enchant and you'll see it.
The costumers – two a time
– are a fundamental part of this performance; they are the ones which
make the action possible; the ones which generate life. They are the
other side of an umbilical cord.
The breath and tears it gives
us - same to everybody – hold us, it’s about us.

2007
I know there’s a very black
part of me.
I thought peace, as darkness,
is a long time sleep. My mind is a blank sheet.
And when they finally closed
my eyes I saw / Black on white and blue. I saw black becoming coagulated
dark red blood.
There’s a part of me so green
you’ll never know. I cut my body; that’s the colour; that’s my
unfolded sign.
If it seems very incomprehensible
to you, then you’d perfectly understood.

Sensoirée
2007
A serie of “mini-performances”
which happen at the same time. The costumer has free action. Outside
and inside, the game of seduction. The mechanics of choosing and being
chosen. The exclusive performer/costumer relationship. The one and unique
action.
Guests are awaited to fill
the emptiness of a rocking-chair, a bar, a picture frame, a pillow and
the stairs.
Sensoirèe doesn’t begin
and it doesn’t end: it holds, it happens, it can be independent. It
doesn’t invade, it is discreet and usually light. It’s short and
proud of being it.
Possible performers: Emiliano Austeri, Silvia Benocci, Alessandro Carlaccini, Sara Carità Morelli,

Moroni, Roberta Rossi, Simone Scibilia

Before being an art, narration
was a daily practice of the crepuscle. It was the time the members of
a community, tired of the diurnal work, met themselves around a fire
handing down real or invented stories. The nocturnal sky and myth were
– and they still are – an inextinguishable source for every people:
at every latitude they traced in the constellations the characters of
myth and the archetypal symbols of the human being.
Working on this play we tried
to explore and investigate those practices and archetypes; with our
noses up we tried to discover step by step the traces of the human beings’
passage on earth.
As outsiders we discovered
that if we look at the stars we see Time better than Space: the images
which arrives to our eyes from stars are travelling since a long time
(four years for Alpha Centauri - the closest to the earth - and centuries
for other far stars). These different times are projected every night
simultaneously in the sky, composing a temporal plans’ mosaic.
In this production we temporarily
put off some aspects of our research to focalize our attention on narration,
totally serving the stories. Holding to our essence of group
and to the taste of work together, the narrations often take the form
of coral story, and recover archaic sonorities which give the flavour
of a temporal suspension, in tribute to the sky.
