Theme

How to find one’s humanity through spirituality?

Show summary

An enigmatic journey inspired by the Greek myth of The Three Moires.

By means of symbolic scenes, this dance production explores the human condition. Three women-witches, sisters of destiny, evolve in a mystical dance, slow and earthy, that bit by bit transforms into a dynamic and aerial choreography.

Supported by a bewitching visual and sound universe, the audience discovers the skilful performance of the dancers, who amuse themselves with destiny.

Long braids, virtual extensions of their bodies, represent the different states of mind of our Three Moires. Hourglasses, witnesses of time, accompany us till the final ritual, inviting the spectators to connect with their humanity.

This powerful, crazy and sensitive work will captivate young and old alike.

Tip1

You don’t need to be an expert to appreciate a work of art.

There is no right or wrong perception/interpretation.

There isn’t necessarily something to understand.

Just because you don’t enjoy a show once doesn’t mean that will always be the case.

Tip2

There’s more to a cultural experience than liking or disliking a work of art. All the nuances that you might feel may be explored.

Everything you experience during a show is important, even boredom.

Tip3

Children need to express their emotions during the show.

“Shushing” during the show can be more bothersome than the children’s laughter.

Intention

The support we are suggesting encourages positive expectations that will sharpen the children’s attention.
