TICKET

Nostalgia is a reflection on the yearning for the past, on the desire and need to relive unique and unrepeatable moments. In a world where everything changes incessantly, Insaudo proposes a journey born from his melancholic yet positive nostalgia for fragments of life lived on stage. The performance focuses on the span of time between the final moments of the show and the audience’s first applause, defying the traditional chronology of a performance and retracing the dancer’s spectrum of emotions in a chaotic way. Insaudo questions what would change if we looked at the final bow of a show as an iconographic image, asking whether the artist has ever truly stopped performing or whether they remain trapped in a different dimension. The work also employs a performative docufilm as a narrative tool, constructing the scene through a non-linear sequence—just as memories return to us in a non-linear way. The performance becomes an experience of perceptual displacement for the audience, who find themselves immersed in the creation and in the sensations it evokes in the dancers.

Giovanni Insaudo is a successful choreographer and founder of I VESPRI | Giovanni Insaudo, which has allowed him to forge his own artistic language and movement identity. He has danced with companies such as Dantzaz Konpania, Balletto dell'Esperia, Gärtnerplatz Theater, and Luzerner Theater. His works are presented at international festivals and competitions. In 2024, he was awarded the Danza&Danza Prize as Emerging Choreographer of the Year and received the City of Foligno Prize for choreographic merit. He has created works for numerous international companies, including Landestheater Linz, Semperoper Dresden, Theater Lüneburg, Palucca Hochschule Dresden, Opera di Graz, Konzert und Theater St.Gallen, CNN/AterBalletto, Theater Trier, Theater Nordhausen, Gärtnerplatz Theater, Hung Dance, Tanz Luzerner Theater, Compagnia Opus Ballet, Tanz Labor/Roxy Theater Ulm, Eko Dance Project, Contemporary Bachelor ZHDK Zurich, Oriol Martorell Conservatorio Barcelona, D.A.F.
