ALLEO / CLINCH / H

ALLEO:
It all starts up there, where we glimpse what is happening, where all that is alien and unknown is reflected. Alleo (“alien, foreign”, in Galician) is based on the idea of the watchtower and speaks to us both about the unknown what is to come, and about the tower and its watchman, who must confront the loneliness of this position and the burden of the discovery of the unknown. Colectivo Glovo is a Galician-Portuguese dance company based in Galicia, co-directed by Hugo Pereira and Esther Latorre, also creators and directors of the “Atopémonos Bailando” Residence Programme in the city of Lugo. Since its foundation, the company has toured Spain, Portugal, Italy, Mexico, Costa Rica, among other countries, and has received awards and honours at various European festivals.

CLINCH:
In boxing, the term ‘clinch’ refers to the moment when the two fighters 'hug', blocking the opponent's punches until the referee separates them. CLINCH, the show, questions the dictates of contemporary masculinity and the way that men feel challenged by other men to confirm their virility and their identity. Àngel Duran's work explores the human condition through body language and a clear commitment to the new dramaturgy. Influenced by philosophy and theatre, the artist explores the poetry of movement and emotional expression with the aim of connecting with the audience and inviting them to get to know his personal imaginary.

H:
H is a waltz in two, a character and his essential element, the balancier who gives him life. It is a dance of forces that reveals to us the weaknesses and needs of its protagonists in order to exist; the yearnings and internal struggles that define their lives; the rem, the struggle, a struggle and the inevitable fractures. At times, it is a thin layer and at other times, a weight clutched in the unconditional arms of a mother. Two voices out loud, silent of words. La Corcoles is the universe created by the artist Mariona Moya, who specialises in balancing on a tightrope. Circus, dance and street theatre are their means of expression. With a very personal style, La Corcoles stands out for their way of understanding balancing, investigating movement on cable and discipline from dance.
