Língua
Dance-theatre performance co-created by: Natalia Lis & Susana Vilar - Portugal
Two bodies in the space of absurd. Question, answer, provocation.
Bodies that move as one, in harmony and lightness. Bodies that break the dialog of trust in the pursuit of self-realization.
Língua dance-theatre performance emerges as an act of manifesto. It is a performative reflection on the importance of non violent communication that explores issues such as intimacy, manipulation, oppression, vulnerability and violence.
