Micro

The staging, agile and versatile, is designed for unconventional venues, to create a concert of emotions that embraces the language of the body and silent clowning. Interaction, multidisciplinarity and immersive listening create soundscapes and stimulate the imagination.

A journey through the contrast between the electronic and mechanical sounds created by humans (household objects, vehicles) and the song of nature and the microcosm, experienced in a total listening immersion through sound architectures recreating different types of places. A continuous metamorphosis from one insect to another is created with a few scenic elements and through the language of the body.

Thanks to the energy self-sustainability of the performance and the reduced scenic action spaces, the show can be easily adapted to places such as city squares and natural locations.

Accustomed to the metallic and artificial sounds of the modern world, the buzzing of a fly can seem annoying. And what if we suddenly became insects?

This happens to our protagonist, who lives her life always with a remote control in hand, surrounded by metallic, artificial sounds, and even when she leaves the house, the sounds of vehicles and human chatter form the background. But suddenly, a transformation occurs. A magical metamorphosis from one insect to another lead the spectator in a playful dance among the sounds of nature. The performance uses clowning and mime techniques. The multiple situations and settings are evoked solely by the movements of the actress’s body and supported by precise sound dramaturgy that the audience will hear through WiFi headphones. The sound environment thus becomes the predominant tool to provide an immersive and all-encompassing experience, accompanying the spectator within the story.

The show plays on various levels of interpretation, making it suitable for the whole family.
