On Thursday, September 21, 2023, at the Teatro SanbàPolis in Trento, a show of "Danza Cieca" with Virgilio Sieni will be staged.
Danza Cieca is a duet performed by Virgilio Sieni and Giuseppe Comuniello, a blind dancer with whom the choreographer shared years of research and initiation into the movement. It is a performance that explores the nature of play as a poetic and creative device that opens, and closes, every stretch of movement. The dance is born from the meeting of the two bodies, where the dilation of time, the gaze turned to the tactile space and being adjacent to each other give life to a continuum of postures and approaches that transform the body into an inexhaustible atlas of democratic places.
In its site-specific set-up, the performance is presented as an open, traversable space in which, around the nucleus of the two interpreters, the rooms areilluminated by night light, alternating flashes and flashes of light.
