A touching situation of timid but poignant movements of people who recognise something in each other.Theaterkrant
Italian choreographer Chiara Bersani and her performers invite you into the undergrowth of an imaginary forest. Are they lost or has someone left them behind? Or did the forest grow up around them one day? In this mysterious habitat they move in tandem with the light and the sound: unpredictable, trembling and fluid. How does a body that cannot walk dance?
For her new creation Sottobosco, Bersani organises workshops for people with a physical disability. At each playground, she and a group of local performers investigate how their bodies can coexist in and with nature. A new step in Bersani’s artistic exploration of the politics of the body.
