Collapse is a simple story, 5 people, 35 balls, 5 clubs and a wheel, the music that unites, underlines, accompanies a language made of movement and juggling. Collapse is a praise to movement, everything moves, people, objects, lights. And the public peeks through the keyhole at the artists who become a single organism, recreating a juggling of bodies and objects. Collapse calls into question the boundaries of the arts, movement, juggling, acrobatics, trying to find new ways of expression. In Collapse there are no technicians, musicians and artists but a group of people who transform the space making it alive, a vertigo of movement that passes from the body to the objects, from the performers to the public who ultimately find themselves the amused protagonists of the show.
“We would like – states Francesco Sgrò – that this show could not be catalogued, a show that eschews classifications between the arts, a show that makes the scenic moment and the meeting with the public the reason for its very existence. A shock for anyone who is used to saying this is not dance, this is not circus and this is not music. Dance, music and juggling are created at the same time, each one is the creator of the other, Collapse does not work the arts separately but treats everything as if it were a single language, a single way of expression.” Collapse is a show suitable for anyone with imagination, children in particular are able to find a personal and different story in Collapse, the magic of the show is filtered and amplified by their eyes.
The show is suitable for children aged 5 and over and for families.
