ERA - sonnet for a Clown

"ERA is a journey which - like Alice's journey - begins from a fall and continues on a path that oscillates between past and present, memory and oblivion, tradition and modernity."

A show that seeks the essence of the game, the surprise, the irreverence and the simplicity of life through the circus. 

As the show is about to begin,terrible news comes to put it in danger. From this unforeseen event will arise other opportunities which will then be offered to the spectators: the opportunity to write a new score for the show, the opportunity to redraw the outlines of a subject which, little by little, will assert itself, will reveal itsnuances and reveal the preoccupations that inhabit it, as well as the emotions it arouses: life, death, time, money… Ineluctable themes, but treated in a very personal way by the company. Voluble acrobatics with intimate gestures, with aconstant concern for simplicity, but also imbued with irreverence, Era defies the laws of time and takes hold of the Track with his body (s).
