...Senza Che???

Luca Tresoldi & Giovanna Bolzan

…Senza Che ??? (...Without which ???)

A bitter-sweet show of circus-theatre and the handling of rubbish…

Created and interpreted by: Giovanna Bolzan and Luca Tresoldi

Carried out with the support of : Espace Catastrophe, Oggettivamente Pazzi.

The Show:

A simple scene.... few things..... cardboard boxes, a bin, a pavement.... it all begins on a street corner when two characters meet.
How can you have fun when you have nothing?
For our two characters, everything seems possible, they have the freedom to live in the city as if it were their home and they make use of everything that the city lays before them, inventing new uses for that which we call rubbish….
Things are continuously changing, everything takes on a new aspect.
From within their poetic and dynamic frames the protagonists, through balancing acts on slack rope, acrobatics on a chinese pole, amazing transformations and ingenious manipulation, give life to extravagant and paradoxical situations that, between laughs, give food for thought.
A poetic, bitter-sweet show that amazes...

Street show
Playtime: 40 min.
All ages

The inspirational theme :

The homeless are the inspiration for the project.
More precisely, we have chosen to deal with that aspect that makes these people paradoxically similar to, while at the same time distant from, each one of us.
Similar physically (in that we live in the same towns, on the same streets, on the same street pavements) and socially (because each one of their stories could be our own). Distant, on the other hand, because of their lifestyle which, being so different from ours, brings them to perceive and live our same reality with another system of values, both material and emotional.
Having had these initial thoughts, we didn't seriously pretend to step into the shoes of a homeless person, of course not, but allowing ourselves to get caught up in some of their tales, our imagination transported us to a bizarre and grotesque universe where "living on the streets" is not seen as a condemnation but rather as the freedom to treat the city as a home and to take advantage of everything that it puts in their way, inventing new uses for that which we consider rubbish….
